During this time of unprecedented uncertainty, all of us here at the Carousel of Light are concerned about the safety and well-being of our families, colleagues, customers, and the many friends who make up our community.
Our hearts are with those who have been affected personally by the outbreak of coronavirus (COVID-19) as well as the many communities around the world that are facing extreme measures in the attempt to slow its spread.
For the last seven years, we have been honored by the trust you place in us to run the carousel in a safe and comfortable manner. Therefore, in today’s challenging environment, we have decided the wise thing to do is
suspend operations for the 2020 season. We look forward to another successful season in 2021.
The board wishes to thank the Falmouth Village Association, Falmouth Chamber of Commerce, Falmouth Public Schools, and the Town of Falmouth for their cooperative partnerships.

Carousel of Light from Brian Switzer on Vimeo. You don't really understand human nature unless you know why a child on a merry-go-round will wave at his parents every time around--and why his parents will always wave back." --William D. Tammeus, Pulitzer Prize Journalist.
