Merry Christmas Aurora Symphony of Lights Fans!!! So many of you have asked where you can make a donation when you have seen me outside. My good friend is behind in his fundraising goal for Batavia Mothers’ Club Foundation. He did not do his display this year due to getting EXTREEMLY burned out after competing in the Great Christmas Light Fight. These types of light shows literally take all year to build, maintain, wire, program, and THEN setup! Please consider donating to the link provided below on behalf of our show to get that goal!!!!! Then hopefully that insane display is enjoyed again. Thank you
Ha ha! So I came home from work today and found this in our yard. My first reaction was laughter because clearly the Grinch must have been visiting to steal the Christmas lights and the Christmas Joy!
Then I thought for a minute wow this could really make me angry … like seriously … we’ve given so much to our community and to BMCF and just needed a little time off!
But … I am landing on thinking it’s pretty funny. Especially as I am pretty sure I have figured out who the jokester is!
I know there are lots of people that have been disappointed with no light show this year and I get it. Frankly … I am missing it (and all of you) also! Although… I’m not missing trying to keep a light show running with 2 feet of snow and 0° temperatures in December!
All of that being said, I haven’t been spamming you all with repeated asks to help drive our fundraiser, and I sincerely appreciate many of you who have already donated and through your donation support our local families and communities. But for now, we seem to have stalled on the fundraiser… if you’ve got a couple bucks or if you can share information about the fundraiser, now is the time to help us drive towards our goal as we close in on Christmas and the end of the month!
You can find the fundraiser at www.lightsonekman.com!
I hope everybody is staying warm and having a great December! Good luck planning for the man in the red suit next week and I hope you can all avoid the Grinch!
-The Grinch (Ha ha). 🎅
