SNEAK PEEK Facebook followers! LIVE NOW! This weekend our lights will be on Friday Saturday and Sunday nights to run testing.
This means The Christmas light show is on but there may still be glitches that need to be found/fixed or there may be things that are not working properly. However the show will go on while we try to look for anything that needs to be corrected.
This is our testing before it goes public. Again, please do not share this post. This is strictly for our Facebook followers to get a sneak preview this weekend.
During this time the ferris wheel will not be operable as (once again) it needs to be repaired.

That's a wrap for our October light show.
See you all for our Christmas light show coming soon :)
Final few days of our Free October light show. The show begins at dark and runs until 10:30 p.m. nightly. Click on the following blue link for all of the details.
October / Fall Lightshow at LightUpCitrus - Lecanto - and Toy drive for Casa Citrus.
During our light shows, we will be collecting new and unwrapped toy donations for the upcoming holidays. They will be given directly to Casa Citrus domestic violence/abuse shelter.
Donations are not required to enjoy the show. But any and all, are greatly appreciated.
They are accepted at both the toy drive box on the front porch,
And at the other (LightUpCitrus) donation box halfway up the driveway on the tree.
Please limit toy donations to new and *unwrapped* toys only.
That way the shelter knows what the toys are and can distribute them accordingly. These toys are redistributed through Casa to local families in need. Not just during the holidays but also the families that they help year round.
For those who don't know, We are a very large part of this community. Have been for many years and are well known for the charity work that we do.

Who we are and what we do:
Through our Lightupcitrus lightshows, we also support local charities / organizations and assist with putting on local events and helping local organizations. Each year we feature toy drives at our light shows that accept donations of new and unwrapped toys. We then give them to local charities and organizations for distribution. The last couple of years we have teamed up with Casa citrus domestic violence shelter. We try to unite the community through our love of holidays and everyone's love of our lights.
We don't do any of this for any kind of glory or fame. Heck most times you won't even see us out there. We just want others to enjoy it. All we want is to simply do our part in giving back to our community.
