So why doesn’t the IBJ use the phrase “Long-popular Fishers Christmas light display…” in the headline? That is what it is called throughout the article, including the quotes, until it states what the Conner Prairie festival is going to be called.
Figures, now that its going Connor Prairie, we will have to pay for it. The only ones benefitting from this are Reynolds and Conner Prairie.
Not necessarily upset with Reynolds as they provided this free service for many years but I am disappointed that we will have to drive further and pay admission if we want to see it. We will probably just skip it from now on
The one at the 500 track is more spectacular!
So Reynolds transferred all their displays to Conner Prairie. They did this display as a PUBLIC SERVICE and it was drive-through, so quite accessible. NOW Conner Prairie expects people to pay $16 PER PERSON to WALK through their property in the cold and see the same displays that used to be visible from 37 and I69. Flipping ridiculous. The City of Fishers should have worked with Reynolds to take this over and make it into something that would still be free to the public. Really disappointed in all involved with this money grab. Another great Fishers tradition down the tubes.
They are just copying IMA which makes a lot of money from their holiday display. Not sure walking is what I would enjoy when it is a light display.
Wow, it’s going to be weird driving that stretch of highway this season and not seeing the Christmas lights.
“Another good thing, is done gone on…”
Probably a decent tax writeoff for Reynolds too on the ‘donation’. Bye bye, baby Jesus.
While I always enjoyed Reynolds’ Christmas display every year as I sped by on my way to the big city, it was never actually “massive!” Come to Marion between Thanksgiving and New Years Eve to witness a true massive light display at the Christmas City Walkway of Lights. It costs $5 per car (no matter how big your car/van/bus is), and you will drive a couple miles of fun, beautiful, and whimsical Christmas/holiday displays through Matter Park. If you want more info, I’ll be happy to send it to you.
Keep up the great work, IBJ!
