Christmas Tree Lane opens tonight

Fig Garden Village’s Christmas Tree Lane kicks of its 86th year tonight with a Walk Night.  Tonight will be the first of two nights this season in which no cars will be allowed.  We found this blurb on their official website:

Two nights, Tuesday, Dec. 2 and Wednesday, Dec. 10, are Walk Nights and belong to walkers only. On those days, Van Ness Boulevard is closed to vehicles from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. Tree Fresno will be providing bus rides from the north east section of Fig Garden Village in the Financial Center area for the two walk nights. For more information regarding the bus service, please contact Tree Fresno at 559.221.5556. All the other December days are open to vehicle traffic.

The lane tour of old-fashioned displays is free. Donations are appreciated along the lane to help pay the cost of installing the lights along county property, which takes three months of professional labor by a hard-working guy named Shawn Caglia. The non-profit lane project is supported by contributions.
