As we gear up for the holiday season, another new drive-thru Christmas light display will debut in the Capital Region in November.

Or at least it does not feel like it's right around the corner. But have no fear, you will be hanging lights and watching Hallmark Christmas movies before ya know it! Not to mention looking for fun Christmas activities to get into the spirit-of-the-season with your family.
