Start Winter Break with a magical 3-night stay in a 2-bedroom deluxe condo at Wyndham Governor’s Green, an RCI Gold Crown Resort, from December 19–22, generously donated by Falls Church Education Foundation Board Member Sharon Schoeller. During this special weekend, you’ll be in Williamsburg for the holiday season’s most beloved tradition: Grand Illumination, when “candles twinkle in the windows of Historic Area homes and buildings, fatwood crackles in street-side cressets, and the heavens explode with pyrotechnics.”

You’ll have the chance to enjoy all that Colonial Williamsburg has to offer while taking in the festivities of Illumination weekend on both Saturday and Sunday nights. As Sharon shares, even for returning visitors, “a trip to Williamsburg isn’t repetitious.” With new research, archaeology, renovations, and expanded interpretation, this living history destination continues to offer more each year—from the vivid beauty of the Governor’s Palace to deeper stories of Nation Builders, enslaved people, and Native American communities.

Bid on this unforgettable holiday getaway and experience Williamsburg at what Sharon calls “the most magical time of the year.”
