Thank you for taking the time this holiday season and each season to stop by and visit Christmas on Evergreen. I am so grateful for your support! I am so happy we were able to do the light show one more year - it was definitely one of the silver linings of 2020 for me.

When I was 8 years old, creating a holiday light show was a dream for me - it was all I wished for every day. By age 12, I was lucky enough to make my dream come true (and continue dreaming for 9 more years). I wanted every child to have their dreams come true like me, so I decided to start raising money for Make-A-Wish Foundation. These courageous kids have so many dreams as well, and with your help, we have been able to fulfill so many of them. This year alone, we have raised over $35,000, and over $91,000 since I began in 2012!

Thank you again for supporting me, Make-A-Wish and the final-final year of Christmas on Evergreen (tonight is our last night). I am so grateful for all of the kind messages, warm smiles, emails, notes, and posts this year and every year. These words of inspiration are what has made it worth every minute of this experience.

Wishing you peace, health, hope & happiness in 2021,

Christian Tingle

Last day for the light show is Wednesday, January 6th-share with your friends!

Thank you for all of your incredible support over the past 9 years! You all are what has made this experience so special. Being able to do one more (the final final) was one of the many silver linings of 2020! We have raised over $33,000 this year alone and hoping to get to $100K for lifetime donations (only 9K away)!

Thank you again to all of our amazing neighbors for embracing the display and allowing this to be possible year after year (especially this year with all of the traffic).

Cheers, Christian
