The Pitman Light Display is in the Grove Section of Pitman, which is a block off of S. Broadway. I usually turn onto 2nd Avenue from S. Broadway, park my car in the parking lot, and walk the 1-2 short blocks to the display. Like someone else mentioned, you'll actually be walking through the tiny backyards of a couple people's houses.
I'd say it's more geared towards younger children, but I've always enjoyed it. The picture below tells you the hours it's open. If you want to get a sneak preview, visit either of these photo sites:

Oh by the way we went to a place this past weekend on RT322 just past Rowan Univ. There is a lil church there on the same side as the College.
They really did a great job.
They give you a CD to put into your player & it tells the tales of each station you drive up to & stop at.
You drive around the church while it talks & explains things like the angel visiting Gabriel & How Mary & Joseph had no place to stay & so on & so on
Oh & there are live animnals & people at all the scenes throughout the entire event.
It all lasts like 15 minutes or so but it was neat to do.

Pnc On Xmas
Pnc was a good light show until 2 or 3 years ago when a new "company" took over the seasonal contract to do the lighting,they don't even have the ice rink or meet santa and hot coco set up any more,waste of time and money unless you don't mind a car ride and a little oooh and ahh but nothing more!

According to THIS recent article, the display stays up until the Saturday before New Years. So, looks like you have until this Saturday to get there. Have fun! |

p.s.,
The article also says it's on North Avenue in Pitman. I know that's in the Grove Section, right behind Broadway. I'm sure you'll find it on mapquest.com
