Sharing holiday spirit

Twinkling lights adorning houses is just one of the popular ways people get into the Christmas spirit.

Twinkling lights adorning houses is just one of the popular ways people get into the Christmas spirit.

North Vancouver residents John Ribalkin and Aurore Viau have taken the decorating ritual to a new extreme, stringing around 100,000 lights of varying shapes and sizes on their property, located at 4967 Chalet Pl., all for a good cause. Ribalkin and Viau have been collecting money and non-perishable food items for the Harvest Project for the past three years and are hoping this year to reach their goal of $10,000 and 100 bags of groceries.

Have you decked your house with lights or have the best ugly Christmas sweater? The North Shore News wants our readers to share their holiday spirit. There are two ways to do it:

. Post your pictures of holiday memories on Twitter or Instagram using the hashtag #NSNchristmas. Pictures will appear online.

. In our Dec. 22 print edition (on the Sunday Focus page 3) we will feature photos of houses with Christmas lights. Email your info and address to [email protected] to arrange for one of our photographers to take a picture of your house lights.
