Successful 2020 Northern Spirit Light Show nets over $100K for non-profits, schools
The Peace Draft Horse Club (PDHC) is celebrating a successful 2020 Northern Spirit Light Show at Evergreen Park by dishing out over $100,000 in proceeds to schools and non-profit organizations in the Peace Region.
President of the PDHC Jody White says over 12,500 cars carrying over 40,000 people took in the light show between November 18 and December 31, 2020. That is an attendance figure White and his team didn’t know if they could reach due to public health restrictions.
“We talked about it and thought with no wagons, no fires, we’re not going to see the people,” said White. “But, in our eyes, the community needed this in order to have a little bit of normal back in their lives.
“We were just very happy that we were even able to put it on, let alone have the success that it did this year.”
