The York County Park system has changed over to LED-only lights at Christmas Magic, which translates into immense cost savings. But don't worry about a loss of color and imagination with the change.  

Christmas Magic is a marvelous combination of flashing lights, strings wrapped around trees, and lights that bring shapes of animals and people to a colorful 'life' at Rocky Ridge County Park in Springettsbury Township.

Cost for adults is $8, and children 4-12 is $6. The 1/2 mile walk is open 6-9 p.m. Monday through Friday and 5-9 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday until December 31, except for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, when everything here is closed. 
 Weekends are very crowded, so it's best to visit during the week. 

This year's inside displays include a York County SPCA Holiday scene. Two handlers had their rescued dogs there, and a few wild animal trophies were shown as well. 

Also inside is the Susquehanna Valley Garden Railroad Society's larger G-gauge train display which mesmerized many of the kids who wandered through. 

The inside displays are all warmed by roaring fireplaces, so there's no need to be intimidated by the cold.
