Holidaylights at CALM's New Attractions November 28, 2009

"HolidayLights at CALM" will feature an imaginary ocean of aquatic animals to celebrate its seventh season, from November 28-December 30. Event hours are 5:30-9 p.m., each night, except Dec. 24-25, when CALM will be closed. Always family-friendly, HolidayLights is once again offering $2, Monday-Thursday, ticket discounts. Regular admission prices are $6 for children ages 3-12. Children ages 13-17 and senior citizens (age 60+) are $10. Adults pay $12. Tickets will be on sale a week prior to the event opening through Vallitix at (661) 322-5200 or on the Internet at http://vallitix.rdln.com. New to visitors this year is an ocean of aquatic animals transformed in CALM's tranquil pond, plus lighted mariachi and fireworks displays. Traditional crowd favorite, the symphony of dancing trees, is back, along with rides on the Candy Cane Express and Grand Carousel. All of it takes place amid displays of more than two million lights interwoven throughout CALM's 14, beautifully landscaped, acres. Proceeds from HolidayLights at CALM benefit the non-profit CALM Foundation, providing funding for developing new and exciting animal exhibits at CALM. CALM, located at 10500 Alfred Harrell Hwy., in northeast Bakersfield (between Lake Ming and Hart Park), has for 26 years cared for animals that have been injured or otherwise cannot survive in their natural habitat.
