Sam's Town Hotel and Gambling Hall will light up the celebrated winter display at Mystic Falls Park for the 20th time tonight, November 26, at 5:45 p.m.

"For the past 20 years, we have looked forward to starting off a holiday season of giving and celebration with this tradition, and are always so honored to share it with families from our community," said Bill Boyd, executive chairman of Boyd Gaming.

Boyd will be joined by Sam's Town Vice President and General Manager John Sou to flip the switch on the season's first run of the cherished holiday show.

Each year, the pioneer-themed Mystic Falls Park Light and Water Show transforms just before Thanksgiving to kick off the holiday season. This time-honored tradition has been decking the Gambling Hall since 1994, with decorations beginning in Sam's Town's porte-cochère. Festive lighting and decorative snowflakes lead guests through the property to Mystic Falls Park. Garland streams, wreath-adorned lampposts, and white light and snow-covered trees fill the atrium, while Cowboy Santa takes up residence in the Park's gazebo. The festive décor includes fan favorites such as lighted sculpture polar bears, indoor snow and mountains of poinsettias.

Sam's Town will be hosting the 15-minute laser light spectacular hourly throughout the holiday season, from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. through January 1. And from November 28 to December 23, Cowboy Santa will appear Thursdays and Fridays from noon to 4 p.m., and Saturdays and Sundays from noon to 8:30 p.m.

Another annual tradition is also returning as Sam's Town once again hosts a drive for the Cell Phones for Soldiers Program. From November 1-27, Sam's Town will collect used cell phones, chargers and other accessories, with each donated phone providing an hour of talk time to soldiers stationed abroad. To date, the non-profit organization has distributed more than 2.5 million prepaid calling cards to soldiers serving overseas.

Guests can drop off used cell phones, chargers and other accessories at the B Connected Club at Sam's Town. All participants in the promotion will receive a two-for-one coupon for Sam's Town's Firelight Buffet.
