2024 Light It Up Christmas

Display Dates - December 6th-January 3rd
East Park, Dexter, MO

This is a community event designed to provide an experience for the community and draw people from the surrounding areas to our town. We are asking businesses to set up a 10x10 space and decorate it with Christmas lights. This is a great way for the community to meet your business!

The only cost is $20 for the yard sign to be displayed at your area, just complete the online form or use the printable pdf form provided and return to the park office. (Business, organization or clubs cannot do any fundraising, drawings, or selling during this event.) It will be a great community event, get signed up today!

This is a free event for people to drive through the park during the month of December and enjoy the light displays. 

Part of Light It Up: A Soldier's Story

Dexter Parks & Recreation would like to help honor your soldier during the Holiday season by displaying their name on our “A Soldier’s Story” display at our annual Light It Up Christmas event. Simply register your soldier online with the link above or stop by the park office to fill out a form.  Due to the size of the display, entries are limited to soldiers that live or lived in Stoddard County. 

Please do not re-submit soldiers that were submitted in 2023 to prevent duplicate entries.
