Santa will extend his visit to Light Up Middletown through Sunday this year. The jolly old elf and his spouse will be in the Santa House Friday, Saturday AND Sunday for those last minute special requests. Photos are available.
Admission to Light Up Middletown, which runs through December 31, every night 6-10 pm, regardless of weather, including holidays, is by cash donation. Guests set their own price of admission by dropping a donation in the box at the entrance gate. 2012 marks the 14th year of operation. Donations are used to repair, replace and add to the displays and make improvements to Smith Park.
