New display to light up Hope Town Square

The town of Hope will be kicking off a new holiday tradition next month. The Heritage of Hope organization plans to install a computerized light show  synchronized to music at the bandstand on the Hope Town Square.

The not-for-profit group is putting up the initial money to put up the lights, controller and computer programs to operate the lights but will be looking for sponsors interested in helping out. The hope is that more people will want to come to the town to eat dinner or go shopping after watching the lights display. Organizers hope the nightly displays will begin Dec. 1st.

The Hope Town Council agreed to the use of the bandstand at its meeting last night.
