HOLIDAYSBURG - For 25 years, Historic Holidaysburg Incorprated has been shedding light on what life was like in the Victorian Era. In 1986, the society looked for a way to restore a Victorian home along Walnut Street. The home was built in 1872 and was due to be demolished.

To raise funds, they started their Candlelight Christmas Tour. Now, six homes are involved in the tour held Sunday from 3:00 - 7:00.

New this year, yearbooks from between 1928 and 1980 were on display and for sale. Plus, over 50 photos of does gone by covered the walls of the Historic Holidaysburg Inc. House.

The Society says they hope for another 25 years of the tour.
