Founders Hall Light Fight

Founders Hall’s Annual Light Fight is going on now through Sunday, December 17th!

Ridgefield residents and business owners are invited to enter the contest by November 21st and decorate the exterior of their locations with holiday lights no later than December 6th. Light displays will be available for the public to enjoy from their vehicles between 6pm-10pm from December 8th-17th. Viewers can then vote for their favorite(s) by making a donation to Founders Hall in support of its diverse program of social, educational and physical fitness programs for today’s active seniors. The contestant receiving the largest value in monetary donations will be declared the Light Fight winner. Results will be announced on December 18th at the winning location.

All Ridgefield residents and businesses are eligible to participate, if the location is easily viewed from the road. There is no fee to enter the contest or to view the holiday lights. A minimum of a $25 donation is required to vote on the Founders Hall website. The event, inspired and brought to light in 2020, offers residents and business owners an opportunity to “deck the halls” and spread holiday cheer and good will.

“We’re excited to bring this event back to the community for the fourth year,” said Stephanie Campbell, Director of Development at Founders Hall. “The creativity behind the light displays makes the experience magical–and really encapsulates the season. Plus, families can enjoy the lights together while supporting a great cause.”
