We visited the Christmas lights display while in town with family and had an wonderful time walking around and admiring the eclectic menagerie of illuminated fauna! Even though the place was busy, it's big enough that it didn't feel crowded. You can skip the long line of cars and park in the municipal center lot. $2 a head gets you a ride on little train, which my kiddo LOVED!

Cool little park with 1 tennis court and 4 pickle ball courts. To play on the courts, you might bring a blower and clean them off first, because there’s a lot of leaves.
