Mount Dora Marina Ends Christmas Light Display After 30 Years
The Mount Dora Boating Center & Marina will not hold its annual Christmas light display this holiday season, owner Joe Lewis and his family announced in a Facebook post last week. The display, which grew to more than 1 million lights over three decades, drew families to the Mount Dora waterfront each year. The family cited the desire to spend holidays together as their growing family's needs changed. Community members offered to volunteer, but the family said liability concerns and the display's specialized, undocumented electrical design make a handoff impractical.
