Every year the large narra trees that line one side of Alunan Avenue in my hometown of Koronadal are lavishly decorated with bright colored lights. The light display (and competition) started a few years ago and each year the lights are getting grander.
Each tree is "sponsored" by a company/corporation/organization. The prize may not be enough to recover the expenses (imagine the electric bill!) but I guess its not the point. The folks of Koronadal look forward to the display as the holiday season approaches, the street has become a popular strolling area for families. I have more photos here.
The New Year is just a few hours away. I hope the coming year will be as bright as these lights. Have a blessed and prosperous New Year everyone!

a blessed new year to you bai! all the best and my warmest regards to you and your family.
@oggie - thanks bai! all the best to you too for 2009!
Happy New Year bro! Ang ganda ng mga Christmas lights dyan sa inyo sa Koronadal. I think its a good idea na sponsored yung mga decoration para di na kunin sa taxpayer's money ang gastos ng mga decorations.
Ang ganda naman ng pa contest dyan. Natuwa rin ako dun sa tree bet mo.
Happy new yea Allan! Have a blessed 2009!
@carlo - Oo nga, walang gastos ang taxpayers. Kahit malaki ang gastos maraming companies pa rin ang sponsor ng "light a tree" contest ng Koronadal.
@Ferdz - Sana manalo ang bet ko :D
The second photo is lovelier...
@dodong - thanks for the visit bro!
bright lights...
koronadal's xmas is alive.
@JP - try mo pass by Koronadal during the holidays (next time) bai para makita mo rin ang lights.
I haven't went home this Christmas in Koronadal. I did not see the alive and bright Christmas lights in Alunan Avenue to ProTech Center. Hay. Nahidlaw na gid ako sa Marbel.
Greet me to the roundball in Marbel. Btw, How was the Hinugyaw festival?
