5. Hillside Drive & Vail Court, Streetsville

6. Hurontario Street Tree Wraps

LOCATION: Hurontario Street between Robert Speck Pkwy & Matthews Gate
Take a drive or walk down Hurontario Street near Square One to check out the festively decorated trees. The fun, fringed trees are a collaboration between the Mississauga Public Art Program and Parks & Forestry Division. Each winter, the trees are wrapped in burlap to protect them from the harsh winter then decorated for the winter season. This year’s theme is in celebration of Canada 150 “Brilliance Together.”
This years display was created by Amy Mailloux and Tony Di Nardo and is entitled CANcolours 150.

7. Your own neighbourhood

LOCATION: Right outside your front door!
The weather outside may be frightful but the sights are so delightful, so bundle up and hit the streets of your neighbourhood. Maybe your house is the best on the street, or it will spark a competitive nerve in you for next year!
