For over three decades, the Largo neighborhood of Lake Park Estates has celebrated the festive season through “Lights of Lake Park,” an initiative that raises money for the Suncoast Hospice Foundation. Launched in 1993 by resident Eddie Dow in memory of his late wife, Ruby, the event has since collected $1.3 million, providing additional care services for hospice patients. Each December, the neighborhood illuminates three miles of homes nightly from 6-10 p.m., drawing joy and support from the community. New residents like the Muschios are quickly embraced by this cherished tradition, which not only beautifies the area but also emphasizes the spirit of giving during the holidays.
