Monmouth Lights

They just need $75 more dollars to reach their goal. I know there must be someone who can make that happen today!

This amazing group of kids did their part to get to the state competition, with their stories. Stories that most people wouldn't be brave enough to share. Every time this show is performed I believe it changes lives!

Good thing we aren't publicly funded!!! 🤣

Tonight (January 1st) will be our final scheduled shows of the season. 4:30-10:00PM and the Santa Mailbox is out for anyone who wants one last chance to make a donation (All donations go 100% to local groups that provide opportunities for kids to learn technology and the arts).

We may be testing some changes to our lights over the weekend, but tonight is the last full show of the season.

The last two nights of our show are upon us. While it was a smaller year for changes to the lights, we still feel it was a great season.

- Our page has just hit 2,800 followers and while that is just a number it does allow us to share our lights with more people!
- We continue to find more local Maine light shows to follow and share.
- We are setup to add something to our show in 2026 that we have wanted to do for a long time (and a few thousand more lights...)
- We continue to recieve comments and messages from viewers sharing stories about what our light show means to them and how it has become part of their holiday traditions.

And it amazes me to think this all started for us many years ago at our little house on the other side of town where we would be excited if a couple of cars slowed down to see what we were doing...

Our show will be running tonight, tomorrow and on the 1st. Come out and catch the lights before we start packing things up this weekend. The light for our show sign didn't survive the rain so make sure you remember to put your radio on 91.7FM

Again, thank you to everyone who came out to see the show this year! Also, thank you everyone who helped make the show a success (especially Maine Equipment Rentals). Plans for our 2026 Season are already underway as we were lucky enough to pick up a few hundred more lights last week.

*** Schedule Change: 12/29 ***
The rain and melting is causing some electrical issues today. We are going to shut the lights down for the night to prevent any additional damage. Hopefully we will resume the show tomorrow night and continue through the holiday.

Let's Party right through the end of the year! Week 4 kicks off tonight with some new songs and the playlist will switch over to a party vibe as we put away the traditional Christmas tunes. Fair warning, my kids may have convinced me to put in new songs from Peyton Parrish and something called K-Pop Demon hunters...

Come out, tune your radio to 91.7 FM and enjoy the show.
This week all donations dropped into the Santa Mailbox will be donated to the Monmouth VEX Robotics program!

We are going to run our All Christmas show one last time tonight before we switch to our New Year's Playlist tomorrow night.

12/24/2025

Merry Christmas! Our light show will continue through January 1st. We will run from 4:30-10PM each night, Listen on 91.7FM. We haven't had time to push back the snowbanks, so please use caution and:
- Only park on the far side of the road
- Do not park facing traffic
- Move up as cars leave
- Dim your headlights if possible

The snow from last night has covered some of the ground lights, but it doesn't really take anything away from the show. Also, at this point in our season we may not be able to repair lights if they fail. So while everything is running currently, we may end up having to unplug certain pieces if we experience issues.

Thank you again to everyone who came out to see our lights this year.

The absolute best time to watch Christmas Lights is with a light snowfall. It may have buried us overnight, but it made the show even more magical. The lights will running nightly through the New Year.

So happy we were able to do the show this year. Huge thanks to Maine Equipment Rentals for partnering with us to make it happen. We are already working on our 2026 show planning!
