Narins is the man behind the design of some of the most magical lighting displays in Bergen and Rockland counties. “It’s as much a creative endeavor as it is just climbing a ladder, working a bucket truck, and getting all the houses done in time for the season. It’s understanding each house and using lights to bring out its unique holiday shine, and every year brings new designs, further technological developments the displays and 2011 is going to be the biggest and the brightest yet!” This year, Power Wash Seal of Bergen County will be employing social media to show off the creativity and grandiosity of the displays.
