Sertoma Winter Wonderland
December 5 - 7
In 2007 The Brainerd Area Sertoma Club set out to create a Holiday Family Tradition like no other. With strong support from our community and the hard work of many volunteers, Winter Wonderland was made a reality.
Now in its 18th year, we are proud to continue to bring this wonderful event to the Brainerd Lakes Area year after year. This spectacular holiday tradition is a drive-through tour of more than 80 colorfully lighted and animated displays. The best part? With the generosity of our sponsors and the visitors that tour the lights each year, we are able to continue to give back to our local community partners & more.
