Jerry & Kaye Cloniger –
54 Heritage Drive
Every Christmas, each room in the house is decorated with lighted displays. These include villages, nativities, various holiday themes and “Christmas Past” nostalgic scenes. Many of the decorations, especially the tree, are personal and reflect their life and travels.
Jo Ann Eklund –
10 Cove Road
You will see why it takes hours and hours (and three sets of knee pads!!!) for Jo Ann Eklund to put up her SNOW VILLAGE! But, it is a labor of love – one that started over twenty years ago – and she is still collecting. The rest of the “TOUR” is an extension of the Snow Village – lots of white/silver/crystal and snow!!! You’re sure to leave with the Christmas and Holiday spirit.
Richard & Donna Farmer –
31 Timberidge Drive
Christmas at the Farmer’s home is one of family tradition, no matter who you are or where you come from. Memories of childhood fantasy have been carried with them from their New England backgrounds, antique and design business, and mixed with some new treasures from the south.
Bob & Jackie Harrington –
62 Fairway Ridge
The Harrington home is open, airy and eclectic in design which well describes their taste in Christmas decorations. Jackie has collected decorations for many years which she changes around each year to give a different look. During the rest of the year, Jackie likes a cleaner look. She calls “Christmas Excess" her look for the winter holiday. Bob enjoys the entire spirit of the holiday season, decorations included--whatever they might be.
Rose Reding –
2 Oakwood Court
The Reding home is truly aglow and festive during the Christmas holiday. Mrs. Reding begins decorating her nine Christmas trees about Oct. 1. You will see a patriotic tree(red, white, and blue), a gold tree, a silver tree, a Victorian tree, a traditional tree, a tree of German ornaments, a purple tree, and a “shabbychic” tree (old and dingy). Everyone will enjoy her scope of Christmas cheer.
