Thanks to all our Eagle Nest residents who put up Christmas lights for the holiday season! It certainly helps brighten up our neighborhood during the dark, gray days of December. The 2018 winner of our annual Holiday Lights Contest is the home of Michael and Elizabeth Jones, 7901 Tanager (right). Their variety of decorations along with much effort really brought the holiday spirit to the street. They won second place in 2017. Our second place winner is the home of Norma Levering, 8232 Osprey Circle. Norma was our third place winner last year. Our third place winner was the home of Stuart and Amy Savka, 7832 Mallard Way.  The Savkas are relatively new to the neighborhood and have decorated their home for the seasons. All three winners will receive a gift card this year. A special shout-out goes to Hummingbird Court who had all 6 houses in the court decorated. Thanks to all residents who continue to dedicate time and effort to lighting up our neighborhood during the holid...

Eagle Nest residents could see trick-or-treaters two nights in a row, depending on which city announcement they observe. On Monday, Lawrence Mayor Steve Collier announced the city will shift trick-or-treat hours a day earlier, to 6-8 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 30, to avoid a wet Wednesday forecast. However, as of late Monday, the City of Indianapolis still planned to observe trick-or-treat hours of 6-8 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 31. Eagle Nest residents are advised to leave their  porch lights on if they want visitors, or turn them off if they don't want to be visited.
