Country Christmas Lights

Christmas outings in Edmonton to bring out your inner child

Every year, there is one family that puts all of their time and energy into their Christmas display. The Ruel acreage lights up with thousands of twinkling white and coloured lights strung from trees and buildings, not to mention plenty of snowmen and Santa and his sleigh. The family, with some help from Leduc’s Junior B Hockey Team, starts decorating in October, with the lights staying up until the beginning of January. They collect donations for the Leduc Food Bank, and people come from all over the county to take in the glow. Plus, Santa makes an appearance on weekends.
