[quote="anon-r994"]I noticed that there is no setup occurring at the Christmas light show location on North Main St and that a neighbor has a sign up that says “victory”. I’m assuming that means that the neighbors finally rid themselves of the show which I am glad to see becuase while I did think it was nice to visit once a year for 10 minutes, I thought the unfairness to the neighbors far outweighed any benefit. Anyway, my opinion aside, I am wondering if anyone know the story behind how it was stopped.[/quote]

Can you imagine having that next door to or across the street from your home for the entire holiday season for 11 straight years? <br /> <br /> It’s ironic to me that it only generated $125,000 over the course of 11 years. I would think there’s much less disruptive way to generate $10,000 or so per year for charity. <br /> <br /> Also, I’m not sure that I 100% believe that the homeowner stopped doing their display voluntarily or for personal reasons. The neighbor’s sign that says “victory “certainly leads you to believe that it was more forced than that. I also find it surprising that they didn’t announce that they weren’t doing it anymore until November 17 which is weeks after they normally begin the set up. <br /> <br />Anyway, I’m glad to see it gone because I know some of the neighbors in that area and they are nice people they did not deserve to live next-door to that disturbance for the entire holiday season year in and year out.

I am sure many will be as disappointed as we are to have had to make this decision. To set up our display it would take us over 3 weeks and then we have to be out each night we have a show. Our oldest son Alexander is now in High School and our youngest Kristopher is in Middle school. They are both involved in after school activities 7 days a week which requires both Marina and I do get them to these activities which just does not make it possible for us to continue our display. <br /> <br />We will soon announce some other display that we would recommend you to go see. <br /> <br />Thank you again for all your support!</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>anon-r994</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Mon, Nov 26 2018, 8:51 pm EST<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Main Street- Christmas light show</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">I noticed that there is no setup occurring at the Christmas light show location on North Main St and that a neighbor has a sign up that says “victory”. <br /> <br />I’m assuming that means that the neighbors finally rid themselves of the show which I am glad to see becuase while I did think it was nice to visit once a year for 10 minutes, I thought the unfairness to the neighbors far outweighed any benefit. <br /> <br />Anyway, my opinion aside, I am wondering if anyone know the story behind how it was stopped.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> </table>
