LTE: Kudos to city, businesses on holiday light displays

To the editor,

Just want to shout out a huge “thank you” to City of Waconia Public Services Director Craig Eldred and his staff. They have done a fantastic job with Christmas lighting and banners in Waconia this year. With our short days and long nights, stuck in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Christams lighting is more meaningful and appreciated than ever. Also a huge thank you to all the residents and businesses of Waconia who have put up Christmas lights – from one string of lights or one small star to great and glorious displays.
