BATTLE GROUND, Ind. (WLFI) - A holiday tradition is back on in Battle Ground and the light and music display has some impressive statistics.

Here's a look at the numbers:             

  • More than 103,000 lights.
  • Computer-controlled channels and circuits?  246.
  • Nearly one mile worth of extension cords.  
  • 10? The number of minutes it takes to enjoy the show.
  • And more than 100 man hours to set the whole thing up.

“I started the day before Halloween. I worked on it about 16 different days between then and Thanksgiving. We lit it off Thanksgiving night. I figured it's about 100 man hours to set it up,” said homeowner Chris Hoover.

When you pull up, Hoover said tune you car radio to 88.1 FM to hear the show.

The holiday light display will be up through Dec. 31. You can find it at 7206 E. Greenview Drive in Battle Ground.
