Throwback Thursday to one of my favorite Duvall traditions — Light Up Duvall!
Every November—rain or shine—volunteers bundle up, grab ladders and light strands, and head out early on a Saturday morning to line Main Street with holiday cheer. It’s that small-town magic in action—neighbors coming together to bring warmth and sparkle to our city just in time for the season.
For us, it started with our two young kids, thinking we could tackle just one of the bigger trees. Now, all these years later, those boys are taller than me—and they’re the ones climbing the ladder while I hand them the strands!
Huge thanks to everyone who helps make this event shine brighter each year. It’s a beautiful reminder of the power of community spirit.
