Dear Friends and Neighbors,
Expect glad tidings galore at the re-imagined Holiday on the Hill Train Show in the Conservatory at Lasdon Park, Arboretum and Veterans Memorial, in Somers, which opens Friday, Dec. 4. Dates, times and tickets available at LasdonPark.org.
To ensure the public’s safety, all New York State protocols are followed regarding the continued pandemic including requiring visitors to wear masks inside the Conservatory, social distancing of family groups and hand sanitizer available to all. As a feature of the Conservatory, it is engineered for proper air circulation and ventilation with two different kinds of fans and vents that bring in fresh air that will be in operation during exhibit hours.
Enjoy the magic of the season as the 2400 square foot exhibit space is transformed into a holiday fairyland, which includes more than 350 feet of track running four separate layouts of G-scale trains that wind past detailed miniature winter landscapes including the North Pole, New York City landmarks, a Lasdon Park replica and well-known holiday characters! The exhibit features thousands of colorful plants, shrubs, trees and flowers and the story of Suzie Sparkle that will engage children to learn some fun facts about the plants they see during the holiday season and why no two snowflakes are the same!
Of course, the jolly old elf in red himself, Santa, will be on hand at the Main House to bring cheer to the festivities. Visit Santa’s Workshop and Office, where he will be hearing wishes from the children. This year the house will be closed due to COVID-19, but Santa will be ready for safe scheduled appearances.
The Garden Shop will be open and selling poinsettias, additional holiday plants, gifts and stocking stuffers and treats. Relax with recorded holiday music while enjoying a quick snack on the Conservatory Plaza.
Tickets will be sold online only with scheduled viewing times, no tickets will be sold on-site.
Tickets are available through December 31. Admission $20 per adult, $10 per child and free for ages 2 and under. $15 per senior. Use code Sparkle20 to receive a 50 percent discount on your ticket purchase.
The exhibit is presented by Westchester County Parks and the Friends of Lasdon Park and Arboretum with support by Mary Ward and Carol Cirieco from Houlihan Lawrence of Somers, West-Fair Electric and Whitehall Auto.
