Dear Editor:
I wish to congratulate the Elora downtown businesses for the fabulous lights we have enjoyed over the holiday season. Kudos to the Gladiators company for highlighting the architectural features of our historic buildings.
I will be sad to see the lights gone, especially as we enter the drab part of the winter. Yes, the costs of electricity must be considered. However, we are a tourist destination and the idea of strolling through this fairyland on a warm summer’s evening is very appealing, for guests and locals alike.
Maybe lights could go on just on weekends or special events like Riverfest, to retain their special status. The beauty of our town has been enhanced by this program!
Kelly Janzen,
Elora
