While behind the scenes work is continuing at Ouabache State Park for the coming Wonderland of Lights, the event’s organizer Kathy Schwartz is still accepting spirit sponsors for the event.

New additions are two wooden soldiers, who will guard the entrance to the showcase area. Checking out lights and arm motion were Tom Brown, left, and Craig Schwartz. Schwartz is the coordinator of the light and music show at the fire tower each year.

Strands of lights need replacing each year, as they take a beating from the weather, and are replaced with LED commercial grade lights. Being a spirit sponsor for $20 helps replace one light strand.
