1-19-2021 - UPDATE: All Faith Community Services Donations


We were able to drop off 876 pounds of non-perishable food, a pair of fuzzy socks, and a Cashier’s Check for $1,922.65 to All Faith Community Services in downtown Buckeye on 1/7/2021. We were also informed that a check for $100 was received by AFCS referencing Lights in Verrado. So over $2,000 raised! Every $1 donated provides 7 meals for those in need. Amazing!!!


Thank you to everyone who made donations this year. What a Blessing!


We plan on continuing our relationship with AFCS for our 2021 Shows in support of our local community.

God Bless!

12-31-2020 - A final count for cash raised for All Faith Community Services is $1,922. 64!!! Amazing!!! We plan on taking all the donated food and cash to AFCS on Thursday, 1/7/2021. What a wonderful season this has been. Already have plans to add additional pixels for 2021 as well as making this more of a "show" by incorporating the Talking Trees more. Thank you for all your support and God Bless!

12-30-2020 - ***FINAL NIGHT TONIGHT***


Our 2020 Christmas Light Show is wrapping up tonight.  It will play at the usual times of 6, 7, 8, and 9 o’clock. 


We have raised over $1,600 in cash and received numerous bags/boxes of non-perishable food. What a blessing it will be to make this donation to All Faith Community Services in Buckeye on behalf of those of you who have visited our show. 


A sincere thank you from the Williams-Rutt family! Our hope is that we were able to provide an exciting Christmas Light Show to all during these tough times.


We look forward to seeing you in 2021 for our Halloween and Christmas Light Shows.

12-29-2020 - Our last night will be December 30th. This has been a great season. We have seen so many families enjoying the show with kids singing and dancing. We received a lot of food and over $1,000 in donations to All Faith Community Services so far. 


There was a FB posting by "TRENDING WORLD by THE EPOCH TIMES" from December 24th capturing our Christmas Light Show Intro and part of the Children's Christmas Mix. This has over 1.3M views, 44,000 likes, and 1,700 comments. Here is the link: https://fb.watch/2HkWskCGx_/

12-24-2020 - Merry Christmas from our family to yours. 2020 has been a crazy year for everyone. We hope our shows have brought a smile and some happiness to your lives.


----------


12-18-2020 - We had to stop the show last night at 8PM due to a gas leak across the street. There were multiple vehicles parked in front of their house. This created a lot of noise and very little room on the street for cars to pass. I made the call to end the show early due to safety concerns. I apologize if you came out after 8PM and were unable to see our show.


With that said, the show will be up and running tonight!


Thank you for your patience and understanding.


----------


12-17-2020 - The rest of tonight's show has been cancelled due to a gas leak at a neighbors house. We will resume the show on Friday, 12/18.


----------


12-16-2020 - We will be running our show on the half-hour for the next 3 nights. This is to allow judging by the City of Buckeye. Show times for tonight, Wednesday, 12/16 through Friday, 12/18 will be 6:00, 6:30, 7:00, 7:30, 8:00, 8:30, 9:00, and 9:30PM.


----------


12-9-2020 - FOX10 was out on Monday to shoot video for the Tuesday FOX10 morning segment. I have added the videos to the "2020 Christmas Video" tab. We continue to receive non-perishable food donations as well as cash. Looking to have one night without a show to allow our family to go and look at Christmas lights in the Verrado community as well as "The Lights on Maui" located in Surprise, AZ.


----------


12-2-2020 - The show has been going well. I have made some changes to the order of the songs being played so it flows cleaner. Today, I uploaded multiple videos of the sequences as well as photos. We've received cash and food nightly in support of All Faith Community Services!!!


----------


11-29-2020 - ***OPENING NIGHT TONIGHT***


We are ready for our 2020 Christmas Light Show! We've added 7,000 additional lights (for a total of 17,000 lights) and have 7 new songs/sequences for this year. We are located at 3131 N Evergreen St. Buckeye, AZ 85396

 

This years' show will run nightly from November 29 - December 30. The show will run for approximately 28 minutes beginning at 6, 7, 8, and 9PM.

We have partnered with All Faith Community Services located in downtown Buckeye and will be accepting non-perishable food donations and cash/check during the show this year.

----------


11-19-2020 - Picked up our donation box from All Faith Community Services located in downtown Buckeye. We will be accepting cash, check, and non-perishable food donations during the show this year. The song list is finalized but still making updates to the actual sequences. Plan on getting all the house and yard props setup this weekend into Thanksgiving week. Think we will be at 17,000 lights this year (10,000 for 2019).

----------


10-7-2020 - Good Afternoon folks! 

Well I broke my right Tibia in late August so the setup has taken a little longer than expected. I am hoping to have the show up to start this Saturday night, October 10th...but no guarantees.


The show will run for approximately 15 minutes beginning at 7, 8, and 9PM. The sequences include This is Halloween, Bangarang, Ghost Busters, and a Michael Jackson mix including Thriller.


I will post updates if there are any changes.


----------


6-30-2020 - Good morning. The (5) Moving Heads and Waterproof Enclosures arrived and all have been tested! This is going to add a "bang" to the show for 2020. 10,000 lights have arrived for the new props and slowly getting installed. Can't wait for the end result.


----------


4-30-2020 - Good afternoon! I wanted to give an update on our plans for 2020. We are in the planning stages for our new Halloween Light show in addition to our 2nd Christmas Light Show.


Lots of new props are planned for both shows with an additional 10,000 pixels overall. May even have (5) 230 watt Moving Heads (spotlights)???


We look forward to seeing everyone again this season.
