Last year when Federal workers were placed on a long furlough, one Mount Dora resident quickly stepped up to help ease the hardship it brought to nearby FCC Coleman's workers.  Linda Bokland was recently recognized by Coleman's staff for her fundraising efforts to provide gift cards to workers to purchase essentials until their work and paychecks resumed.  Well done, Linda!

What time do the lights go on and “when is the three light?”

I have out of town guests coming. Last year the town lite up but the tree was hours later. We had to go home and did not see the tree. Why not the same time.
