Residents are sharing photos on the Let’s Talk Chatham-Kent website (CLICK HERE), which also includes a map that you can use to drive or walk the listed areas. The campaign grew from the efforts of Blenheim’s Light Up Our Neighbourhood Committee, the 2020 Christmas Lights Tour in Wallaceburg and Dresden Shines.
