County fairgrounds Christmas lights brighten Plains

| December 9, 2020 12:00 AM

A couple from Coeur d'Alene, Brandon and Kaley Cutsforth and their dogs Hank and Loretta were passing through Plains on their way home and were told about the lights at the Sanders County Fairgrounds. The lights were strung around all buildings at the grounds, with the Fair Foundation helping with new lights and displays. Funding also came from a raffle, which helped by timers, decorations and energy efficient lighting. There are more than 30 lighted figures, with several thousands lights on a circle drive through the ground, free every night from 5:30 to 10 p.m. through New Year's Day. Donations are always welcome.
