You can hear the birds out here, even though it s a little cool today, but we re really looking forward to it.
Registration begins at 10:30 a.m. with the hunt following at 11:00 a.m. Children will be divided into four age groups and prizes will be given out after the hunt.
A holiday tradition once beloved by long-time residents of the cityâs historic Burnett Heights neighborhood is making its triumphant return tonight.

Itâs a tradition that was popular for years â with vehicles lining those streets, bumper-to-bumper, for hours â but also one that eventually was lost to time.
Relatively new Heights residents Justin and Kelly Lowe, however, upon hearing the tales of luminary-filled Christmases past, have decided to bring it back.
