On December 30th, 2019, volunteers from Shin Shin gathered at the exit gate of Vasona Lake County Park to be safety ambassadors at the end of the Fantasy of Lights drive. Fantasy of Lights is a 1.5 mile drive through display of lights that has been occurring for 21 years, this being its 21st. Our job was to greet the cars near the exit to wish them well and give them car safety tips, such as buckling seat belts and turning on headlights. We also got light sticks to preserve the festivity and to wave at the cars passing by. It was extremely cold that night, so all of us were bundled up in clothing and alternated between greeting the cars and huddling near the heater. Overall, it was a fun and memorable experience.
