You'll exchange real money for "camel bucks" which you can then use to wager on the camels entered into a number of races -- kind of like betting at the horse track, but with camels!! There will be door prizes, 50/50 raffles and a lot of ways to have fun! Must be age 21 to attend.

The 2008 Holiday Glow kicks off the holiday season in downtown Brighton. As we await Santa's arrival, there will be lots of fun things to do -- Hay Rides, Train Rides, hot beverages and foods -- and more. Or, join in the Trottin' Off the Turkey Run prior to all the festivities.

Santa will arrive with hundreds of fans to cheer him. The Mayor of Brighton will greet Santa, present him with a key to the city and magically command the lighting of the Mill Pond trees and Brighton's Tridge. You will be entertained by a musically choreographed light show at the Mill Pond. This nightly attraction will continue throughout the entire holiday season synchronized with songs such as "Christmas Eve Sarajevo" by Trans-Siberian Orchestra and the old favorite, "Holly Jolly Christmas" by Burl Ives.
