News : It’s Christmas time in the city

Take a tour of the various light displays across town. Here is part of the Dulin display.

In a year that's been anything but cheerful, the Christmas season is in full swing around Vinton. If you are in need of some cheering up, hop in the car and drive around town just to find all of the Christmas lights.

Most of us have heard of the Kersten light display north of Vinton on the corner of 22nd Ave. and 22nd Ave. Trail.

There is also a wonderful display on the northwest corner of the former East elementary school property. The display has been put together by the Dulin family. (Thanks for the hard work!) a video of the display can be found on the Vinton Today Facebook page.

There is a second display across from John's Quik Stop that has been there for several years. Take a drive by there.

With all of the masks and social distancing happening, now is the time to pile the kids in the car and take a drive around town looking at Christmas light displays. Make a game of it. How many snowmen can you find? Or how many Christmas trees?
