Lanesboro becomes even more magical during the holiday season (think Hallmark movie!) with storefronts and streetlamps decorated and alit against the backdrop of the bluffs. This year there will again be many free family-friendly activities including free horse-drawn wagon rides, pony rides, live music, bonfire warming stations, ornament hunt for adults and kids with prizes, kids crafting with popcorn and a winter movie, delicious eats and drinks, unique gift shopping, and plenty of photo ops!
