Gift of Lights

I have to give you guys an update on an amazing Christmas experience you need to add to your family traditions.  I had the awesome opportunity to visit The Gift of Lights at the New Hampshire Motor Speedway a week ago for their VIP evening and it was just beautiful!

In case you're not familiar, the Gift of Lights is more than a mile long "road" at the Speedway consisting of LED light displays, totally over one million lights!  At the end of your journey you can enjoy hot chocolate and other refreshments that are available and there will also be photo opportunities with Santa and other holiday characters.  The kids like the moving and sparkling light displays.  It was fun to drive through the different themed sections, something you don't really get driving around from house to house.  The kids liked the leaping dolphin arches!

What I love most about this is the charitable aspect:
Gift of Lights at New Hampshire Motor Speedway is happy to give back to charitable organizations. This year, a percentage of New Hampshire Motor Speedway proceeds will benefit Speedway Children’s Charities. The Gift of Lights event will also be a Salvation Army collection site.
You can visit the Gift of Lights Mon - Thu: 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm, Fri - Sat: 5:30 pm - 10:00 pm or Sun: 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm.  The price is $15 per car and if you bring 3 canned goods to be donated to the NH Food Bank, you'll receive $2 off admission.  Enjoy!
