Light Show An Annual Tradition

Posted

Anne Arundel Medical Center’s (AAMC) annual holiday light show, Lights on the Bay, will be open through Sunday, January 2, 2011. Taking place at Sandy Point State Park, the event features a two-mile scenic drive along the Chesapeake Bay with approximately 70 animated and stationary displays illuminating the roadway.

“We are thrilled to be entering our 17th year of Lights on the Bay,” said Victoria Bayless, president, Anne Arundel Medical Center. “This event is a festive family destination for our community that benefits AAMC and it is a wonderful holiday tradition that allows people of all ages to take in the beautiful sights along the Chesapeake.”
In addition to popular classic displays that visitors have enjoyed for years, including a colonial village inspired by historic Annapolis and one that shows USNA midshipmen tossing their hats in the air, guests will also be treated to two new themes this year: Up North Village and Candy Cane Lane.
Lights on the Bay has something for everyone: Children can participate in a nightly scavenger hunt, challenging them to find items within the show, answer display-related questions and enter a drawing to win prizes. With special glasses purchased at the door, secret 3-D images will appear within the displays. As always, Santa will make an appearance on Thanksgiving Day and every weekend through December 24.
The show is open each night, including holidays, from 5:00pm to 10:00pm and discount coupons are available through local publications and at many local retailers. For more information or to purchase tickets, call 443-481-3161.
