Candy Cane Lane is an area of over 300 homes in West Allis from just north of Oklahoma Avenue between 92nd and 96th streets that welcome Christmas sight seers from throughout the area. 
The event is a "can you top this" with one neighbor out doing the other with lights everywhere...animated characters..snow people...Santa..the elves...brightly displayed throughout the area....and visitors are invited to drive through every night from 6-10 p.m. during the week and 5-10 p.m. on Saturday and Sundays from December 6th to December 28th. It's free entertainment...it's holday cheer.....if you would like...you may be a part of the cheer that helps children with cancer. Throughout the area, there are places where you can contribute to the MACC Fund.MACC for those who don't know stands for Milwaukee Athletes Against Childhood Cancer.
The people in Milwaukee....and those who spend hours decorating and dollars adding to their utility bills...and the expense of the decorations to make the season brighter for seriously ill children.
How fun to come to this post immediately leaving this picture posted by Jim Frimmer - one way to keep up with the neighbors at Holiday time! I like the community spirit on Candy Cane Lane!
Definitely a wonderful neighborhood to be so giving! I would love to visit Candy Cane Lane! (By the way we have a real street here named Candy Cane Lane- Every time I drive by, it puts a smile on my face!)
Hi Sally:
That sounds like a lot of fun!
And for such a worth cause too, especially during the holidays!
I know why don't you ALL come to Candy Cane lane....hot chocolate and gingerbread is on us !
We used to do this more often, but it has been a few years....I am going back this year! THanks!
One of the best places for FREE holiday entertainment and a great way to "give back" to people who need it most...why don't you and your roommate come on over for a hot....or cold....on the way back ?
