About Us

Our Mission

BECOME YOUR GO-TO HOLIDAY ADVENTURE

Enchantment in the Park’s mission is to create a holiday adventure for one and all, where wonder and excitement are experienced through enchanting holiday light displays, music and other performing arts.

In order to accomplish this mission, Enchantment in the Park brings together many community groups and individuals in a spirit of service to design, set up, operate and take down the event every year through sponsorship and donations. Any excess funds are returned to community organizations, such as Family Promise of Washington County through donations or are used to help further growth of Enchantment in the Park. In addition, all collected food donations are distributed to Washington County and Menomonee Falls food pantries.

Enchantment in the Park was founded in 2009 by the Rotary Clubs of Washington County: West Bend Noon, West Bend Sunrise, Hartford and Slinger/Allenton. This team also consists of community members that are not associated with any of the Rotary Clubs.

Enchantment Gives Back

From our volunteers and their more than 4,600 volunteer hours assistance with set up and pack up, our more-than-one-million low-voltage LED lights, and how we put the monetary and nonpershiable food donations back into the community, here’s how Enchantment in the Park gives back to Washington County.

Donations are not required to gain entry into Enchantment in the Park, but are always appreciated.
