Lake Monticello home has made a list of the country’s biggest and best homemade holiday displays.
Jeff Spinello’s annual Christmas display at 4 Lewis Court was selected as one of the top 20 displays by The National Desk, a daily news program and news website produced by the Sinclair Broadcast Group.
“We made the list,” Spinello posted on Facebook on Dec. 7.
“Our Board Director Jeff Spinello is putting Lake Monticello on the map with his holiday lights!” the LMOA posted on their Facebook page.
Spinello told The National Desk that he’s been putting up his annual Christmas displays for 19 years. With over 500,000 lights and 10,000 feet of extension cords, the whole display takes over a month to set up.
The lights are on every night from 5-10 p.m. It’s free to all, but Spinello encourages donations to the Fluvanna SPCA, Caring for Creatures, and the LMVF&R.
