4910 Nugent Drive
Since 2014, Mark, at 4910 Nugent Drive, has been transforming his home into a dazzling holiday display to support Care and Share Food Bank. What started with 165 pounds of donated goods in his first year has grown into an incredible community tradition.
Last year marked the 10th anniversary of Mark’s partnership with Care and Share, and he achieved an amazing milestone. Mark collected 3,944 pounds of food for Care and Share and he is hoping to exceed that this year. Mark’s passion for helping our community led him to a second partnership four years ago, this time with the Springs Rescue Mission. His efforts raised $1,672.00 in 2024.
Long before teaming up with Care and Share, Mark lit up his home simply to spread the joy of the season. Over time, he turned his passion into a way to give back to the community while keeping the festive spirit alive.
This year Mark turned on his display November 21st and added a Grinch theme! So, be sure to swing by 4910 Nugent Drive to experience this heartfelt display for yourself. Bring your non-perishable food items and drop them in the converted, heated chest freezer provided to support this wonderful cause, and/or monetary donations for Springs Rescue Mission in the supplied donation box. Pass the word on to your friends and neighbors so they can participate as well.
So come and enjoy the spectacular lights and music that come to life at 4:15 PM and shut down at 10:45 PM, with music ending at 9:45 PM out of respect for the neighbors. The display will run through January 1st, spreading holiday cheer night after night, with opportunities to give throughout that time.
2572 Pony Club Lane
Steve McKinney had a vision: to create a unique way to fundraise for a cause that truly matters. After watching videos of homes with dazzling, choreographed light displays, inspiration struck—and Pony Club Lights was born!
Steve, along with Alex and Julie, has been running this magical light show for five years, spreading holiday cheer throughout the community and the city. Over the years, their efforts have raised more than $3,000 for No Kid Hungry, a charity dedicated to ending childhood hunger. This year, they hope to double that impact! If you’d like to contribute to this meaningful cause, visit join.nokidhungry.org/goto/ponyclublights and help make a difference for children across America.
The Pony Club Lights show features three delightful characters—Blinky, Linky, and Reginald—who guide you through the experience with humor and joy, introducing the songs that make up this whimsical display. You can tune in to the show by listening on your car radio at 104.7 FM, streaming it on your phone at player.pulsemesh.io, or pressing the button in front of the display to hear it through the show speakers.
Gather your family and friends, stay cozy in your car, and enjoy this heartwarming light show. It’s a festive and fun way to celebrate the holidays while supporting a great cause.
