“People love to ride Segways, which are self-balancing and easy to operate,” said Marsha Seymour, Manager of Tourism and Festivals. “The Segways will be decorated with lighted wreaths, and the safety helmets will be decorated with reindeer antlers. With our sleigh-hayrides sold out and train rides booked up for the season, Segways offer another really neat way to see the park at its prettiest.”
