Welcome to our Christmas Holiday display web site. We call our
display "A Chadwick Bay Christmas". It is located at 131 Willowbrook Ave., Dunkirk, New York. Before Dunkirk was incorporated as a city it was known as Chadwick Bay.
This display is owned by and designed by Tim Peterson. With a bit of help from Bob Peterson. This is a light and music display. It is run by 128 channels of Light-O-Rama controllers.
We have been working on this display--designing, sequenceing music, building the "props", putting up lights etc. since July. When completed, it will have over 20,000 LED lights and 5,500 feet of extension cords. For the 2011 season we will be using about 128 channels of animation and about 25,000 LED lights. (25,250).
01/10/12. Teardown has begun. We're about half done and should have everything but the flag pole cleaned up by tomorrow. Fun while it lasted.
We had a banner year. We made the local paper twice and local radio had a discussion on the displays a couple of times. We also made a couple of important(to us) Facebook pages. Our Carol of the Bells by Carolina Crown drum corps made their page AND DCI's Facebook page. Seldom has one of our videos gone over 100 hits. Over Christmas weekend this one song had over 3,500 hits. Makes it all worth it. We also estimate at least 2,000 cars stopped by during the month of December.
Hope you all enjoyed this years displays.
