KV Winter Lights

We are a handful of citizens who want to bring festivity and merriment in the form of LIGHTS to Kirksvilleโ€™s downtown square during the winter holiday season.

A huge thank you to Tri-County for their recent donation to KV Winter Lights! We are amazed at our community's continued support ๐Ÿ˜Š

As a reminder, we are accepting donations year-round and are already working on plans for next year!

This year's light display will stay up for all to enjoy until the first weekend of January.

WE STILL HAVE ORNAMENTS! ๐ŸŽ„๐ŸŽ„๐ŸŽ„

We hope you had an amazing time at last weekend's Lighting Ceremony with KV Winter Lights. May we suggest commemorating the event with one (or two) of our handmade ornaments? They are now ONLY $5!

Contact us, or visit any of our friends at the below listed businesses to pick one up. As always, all proceeds go to creating bigger and better light displays for the Kirksville community!

It was a magical weekend at Kirksvilleโ€™s Hometown Holiday Event & Kiwanis Christmas Parade!

Thank you, Kirksville, for helping KV Winter Lights brighten downtown at the 2nd annual Tree Lighting Ceremony. We could not make this happen without the support of our community ๐Ÿ’—

The best part?! Seeing our community come ALIVE together to celebrate during the most wonderful time of the year!

I spy ๐Ÿ‘€ a 25-foot steel Christmas tree ๐ŸŽ„ getting fancy and festive!

It was a busy night downtown. We have a few more things to add before next weekend.

Can't wait! We hope you love it!

11/15/2023

We asked, and YOU delivered!

Our Phase III Goal was reached! An amazing 25-foot-tall steel Christmas tree was delivered downtown this week, thanks to your generous dollars!

We'll be spending these last few days before the Lighting Ceremony finishing up all the decorations so you and your family and friends can have a wonderful experience at Kirksville's Hometown Holiday celebration on Nov. 25!

Just FOUR more days to get those donations to KV Winter Lights in order to be recognized on our beautiful signage at the Nov. 25 Tree Lighting Ceremony!

(However, we can always give you our thanks on Facebook and will continue accepting donations year-round, as we plan to expand the light displays again next year!)

THANK YOU!

As always, we THANK YOU for your support!

Did you see that boom lift downtown this weekend?!

Approximately 4,000 lights were strung from the four humongous trees on the Courthouse lawn ... We can't wait for the big reveal!

Join us on the evening of Nov. 25!

Just ONE more week to get those donations to KV Winter Lights in order to be recognized on our beautiful signage at the Nov. 25 Tree Lighting Ceremony!

(However, we can always give you our thanks on Facebook and will continue accepting donations year-round, as we plan to expand the light displays again next year!)

Hey, Kirksville! Just 24 more days until the tree lighting ceremony for KV Winter Lights! We've been working so hard, and are so excited!

But, we still NEED to raise $1,000 in order to build the much-anticipated, custom, 25-foot steel tree that will be added to the Dover Park monument.

Without this last $1,000, we can't commission the work to take place, and time is ticking!

Can you give $10, $20, $50, or $100 to help us reach this goal? Any amount is appreciated! Thank you!

10/29/2023

Hey, friends: We are in desperate NEED of a 65-foot boom lift to be able to pull off the amazing light display we have planned for our big event on Nov. 25!

Do you have access to this crucial piece of equipment that you could rent to KV Winter Lights at an amazing cost or as an in-kind donation? If so, please comment here or PM us!

We've had great leads so far on boom rentals, but nothing has panned out. Ameren generously considered their options, but it wasn't meant to be. United Rentals is generously offering a great rental price on theirs, but all of them are currently rented out. Main Creek Rentals has one, but we aren't sure that we can afford it ...

We need the lift on the first, second, or third Friday/Saturday/Sunday in November to make sure everything is perfect for the lighting ceremony on Nov. 25.

Please let us know if you can help, and please share this post. Thank you!!
