Christmas Acres

Christmas Acres in Le Mars has become a staple holiday event. Started in 1995 by Rob and Joyce Scheitler, this festive display features lighted sculptures, inflatables, music and an estimated 200,000 lights. Visitors can enjoy the display on its walking paths and grab a hot chocolate or coffee sold by the Christian Needs Center as well as baked goods sold by the Scheitlers. The light display is free, though visitors are encouraged to leave a donation for the Christian Needs Center.
