Messick's Equipment's 7th annual Christmas Light Show has opened. The show, which is free and open to the public, features a drive-up show full of tractors, lights and energy-filled Christmas music. Last year Messick's collected $45,368.40 of donations at the Christmas Light Show, bringing the 6-year total of donations raised to $212,712.02.

Messick's Christmas Light show features more than 70,000 Christmas lights choreographed to Christmas music that is broadcast to FM radio, which visitors can enjoy from their car. The light show includes dozens of Kubota tractors and excavators that are integrated into the show by using the machine's headlights as part of the display. Throughout the show, volunteers from Messick's will be collecting donations that benefit five local charities.

One hundred percent of the proceeds collected go to Mennonite Disaster Service, ECHOS (Elizabethtown Community Housing and Outreach Services), Paxton Ministries and the Water Street Rescue Mission.

Messick's Christmas Light Show run every evening from Dec. 6 through Dec. 30, from 6:00 - 9:30 p.m.

Messick's Farm Equipment is located at 187 Merts Drive, Elizabethtown, Pa 17022.
