Well, I use to really enjoy watching the lights go on and the people holding candles when this first all started. Now it is just so many people. And the $$$ spent on the huge display, fireworks, etc. Don't you think that could maybe go to Food Banks this time of year or some charity? Downtown is lit up like Las Vegas, except, how many businesses are benefiting from this? Is anyone spending their money downtown. As you can tell, I am not in favor of all this "glory" of the big parade, etc. Especially the day after Thanksgiving/Idaho Spud.

Question: Would you prefer that the money for the big downtown light and fireworks display go to food banks?
