An update for tonight's light and music shows👇

Tonight’s schedule for Nights of Lights, Canadian Lakes MI has changed due to the weather. The light and music shows will play at their scheduled times; 5:30, 6:30, 7:30, and 8:30pm. But we regret to inform you that TWIN TURBO BBQ will not be onsite tonight and the cocoa bar for St. Michael’s School will not take place. The wind is making it dangerous for people to be outside and travel conditions will worsen tonight. If you do venture out to the Castle to see the lights tonight, it’s probably a good idea to stay in your vehicle to watch the show. ❄️
