The John Christmas Light Tour is back for a 3rd year! This year, I have partnered with the North Okanagan Neurological Association (NONA). NONA's programs help families and caregivers of children with a wide range of developmental challenges. Each house on the tour was sponsored by a local business that made a donation to NONA to have their name on the sign (see sponsors at the bottom of the page). Yes, this year each house will be clearly marked with a light tour sign! A big thank you to the local businesses that supported this amazing cause and to the home owners that create these amazing displays.
Each home was handpicked for the 2021 season and the list includes my family's favourite holiday houses (the snowman home is a favourite in my family - can you find it?). Along the way, you will pass many noteworthy homes. Just a friendly reminder to not walk on anyones property and most lights are off at 10PM.
Grab your family, warm beverages, favourite Christmas snacks and follow the list below. The list is best done in order!
