However, things go awry quickly. His hick cousin, Eddie (Randy Quaid), and his family show up unplanned and start living in their camper on the Griswold property. Our goal is to have fun, let our imaginations run wild, and have the best event EVER in our community. What’s the plan for your Christmas vacation?? Remember, this is the LIGHTER Side of Christmas ... Have fun! 2019 BENEFICIARY Woodland Park Main Street Proceeds from this year’s event will benefit Woodland Park Main Street.
