How It Works

1

Sign Up Your House

Register to host a festive stop at your home. Decorate your front yard with lights, set up a cozy cocoa station, or create any holiday experience you'd like to share.

2

We Build the Map

We'll compile all participating homes into a neighborhood trail map and share it with the community before the event.

3

Enjoy the Trail

On event night, families can stroll the neighborhood and visit each stop at their own pace. It's a self-guided tour of holiday magic.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to hand out food or treats?

Not at all! Simple decorations, lights, or a festive display are perfectly fine. Participate in whatever way feels comfortable for you and your family.

Is there a cost to participate?

No, this is completely free! It's a neighborhood celebration where volunteers decorate and host stops. The only "cost" is whatever you choose to spend on your own decorations or treats.

Do I have to be home the entire time?

You can decide what works best for you. Some hosts may set up an unattended display with lights and decorations, while others prefer to be present to interact with neighbors. Both approaches are welcome!

When will the trail map be available?

We'll finalize and share the complete trail map closer to the event date once all participating homes have registered. Check back here for updates!

What if it rains?

We'll monitor the weather and communicate any changes via the neighborhood channels. The beauty of a neighborhood trail is its flexibility!

More details and the full trail map coming soon!

Stay tuned for updates as we build this magical neighborhood experience together.
