Jeff’s Christmas light Show and Walk-Through Display will always be 100% FREE. Most nights we do have local groups selling baked goods or accepting donations. We also accept donations at the end of the walk-through display. 100% of these donations go back into the light show and walk-through display.
As of 2023. I am proud to say that we feature over 100,000 individual lights!
For November/December. Quite high. We now have solar and have switched to almost entirely LED which helps incredibly, but I would rather not give an actual number.
Most things have been collected over a very long time. Things like the Ferris Wheel and Christmas Movie Facade’s were built by me over the Summer/Fall. A lot of things have also been donated! From statues to lights to candy canes, the community has donated a lot to help this attraction grow.
We have a partial wrap around porch that I have converted the underside of to water-proof storage. A large amount of things are kept there. Other spots include the ceiling of the garage and a new shed that was built in 2022 specifically for outdoor Christmas decorations. Our attic homes all of the indoor decorations.
During the summer I “Projection Map” the house. Meaning I setup my projector, pointing at the house, I usual a special program that displays a white canvas on the full screen, and I outline the house and any parts I need for reference points. Then through Photoshop, Premiere Pro and After effects, I create a show that is projected on the house and matches up to each part of the house perfectly. For 2024, I will be using 3 projectors for mapping and displaying an even more exciting show!
Depending on how “artistic” I feel like being. 3-6 months during my free time.
In 2016. I was visited by 3 ghosts. They took me on a musical and memorable journey of my past and showed me the wrongs I have done. Since sparing me. I have sworn to always hold Christmas in my heart. And to spread it’s cheer all the year round. There is no better feeling then seeing the faces on children and adults when they come to see the show or walk through the back yard display.
