Join us for a fun filled weekend in Williamsburg to start your Christmas season. Make your reservation with the campground early as they may fill up fast for this festive weekend. The campground is offering a Winter Site Special-Stay 3 nights/4th night Free (NOV-MAR) $135.75. Tell campground you are with the Heartland group (van Opstal) and they will try to site us together. We will attend Colonial Williamsburg Grand Illumination on Sunday 12/2. The event is Free, just bring a chair and wear your woolies. We plan to have a group picnic on the lawn as we watch the roving/changing entertainment. Picnic dishes to be organized by the group attending. This event is guaranteed to put you in the Christmas spirit.
If you have not experienced Colonial Williamsburg Grand Illumination, you have missed a fun filled evening. The event is called Grand Illumination because hundreds of candles are lit simultaneously in the windows of the Historic Area buildings signaling the official opening of the holiday season in the restored area. Each entry door is decorated with wreaths fashioned from all natural materials such as apples, oranges, holly and sprig. Colonial Performances begin at 4:25pm. A variety of traditional holiday entertainment takes place including fifes and drums, balladeers and musicians, and costumed performers. At evening's conclusion, three identical but separate coordinated firework displays (at the Capitol, Governor's Palace, and Magazine) will light up the sky.
