Each year the Orangeville Optimist Club transforms a small, out of the way park called Kay Cee Gardens into a winter light spectacle. This is known as Christmas in the Park. With the support of local businesses, the Optimist volunteers assemble over 50,000 lights and displays to be admired on a leisurely evening stroll, starting December 7 and twinkling every night till the 31st of December.
