In this episode of the Grow Clinton Podcast, Andy and Jenny interview Sue Watkins of Symphony of Lights in Clinton, Iowa.
The Symphony of Lights would like to extend its heartfelt gratitude to Lawrence and Carol Bay for their generous contribution of $250,000. Their gift made it possible for the park to showcase new displays this year!
From Thanksgiving all the way through December 30th, visitors to Clinton, Iowa, can enjoy the holiday festival Symphony of Lights. Nighttime tours of the park's displays are available every day from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.
Ticket prices consist of:
Up to 10 people, $10 per car
$2 per person for vehicles carrying more than 10 people

Eagle Point Park, off Highway 67 North, will be filled with over 250 enchanted light displays, including a gingerbread lodge, streams, castles, and trains, for festivalgoers to enjoy. Its majesty and charm will transport you to the childhood vacations you remember so well.
Clinton, Iowa, hosted the Symphony of Lights in November 1996 thanks to the Clinton Symphony Orchestra and the Clinton Jaycee Foundation, two charitable organizations. The event's true purpose became clear to these groups after they initially planned it as a fundraiser.
After a long period of decline, the community finally felt pride thanks to the Symphony of Lights. Volunteerism was reawakened in people of all ages. Volunteers have increased dramatically since the program began. Roughly 400 people are thought to be involved.
