Since 2012, Sheboygan County Rotary Clubs have been coordinating Making Spirits Bright, a holiday lights show event that’s Sheboygan County Food Bank’s largest annual food drive. Visitors drive their vehicles through the 1.1 mile forested route of Evergreen Park to experience light displays choreographed to music. Admission to the park is free of charge, but donating nutritious food items is highly encouraged. Helpful donations are protein items (canned tuna, canned chicken), canned fruit, grains (pasta, rice), breakfast products (cereal, granola bars), tomato sauces and personal care items (shampoo, tooth paste, feminine products). Across the street on Fridays and Saturdays, Santa’s Station (Sheboygan Jaycees Quarryview Center) opens its doors for visits with Santa, wreath raffles, concessions, entertainment and trolley tours.
Making Spirits Bright is open November 29 – December 31, from 5:00 PM – 9:00 PM (closed on Dec. 24). Over ONE MILLION pounds of donations have been collected since the event started! Learn more.
