16th Annual Smith Point Light Show Coming Soon

SHIRLEY, NY — A dazzling holiday favorite is back for another season: For the 16th year, the Girl Scouts of Suffolk County and Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone have teamed up to present the Girl Scouts’ Smith Point Light Show at Smith Point County Park in Shirley.

The drive-through light show is back with more lights, more displays and more festive family fun, organizers said.

The show runs December 1 through December 30 — closed Dec. 24 and Dec. 25— and is
open nightly from 5 p.m. Cost is $20 per car. Tickets will be sold online and at the gate — credit card only, no cash. Fireworks glasses are back by popular demand and will be distributed to visitors while supplies last.

“We are delighted to continue our partnership with the County of Suffolk to bring this
holiday tradition to all,” Yvonne Grant, president & CEO of Girl Scouts of Suffolk
County said. “The Smith Point Light Show is the perfect way for families to spend an evening
together that’s filled with holiday warmth and magic.”

Proceeds from the Smith Point Light Show directly benefit programs for girls, children and
families. The show is built by Girl Scout staff with the assistance of volunteers from IBEW Local 1049 and Local 25, LI NECA, PSEG-LI, and National Grid.

"Girl Scouts’ unique programs and services are offered to all children in a myriad
of ways: traditional avenues, such as troops, partnerships with school districts in STEM and
Arts education, learning opportunities with other agencies, and programs for children and
families in underserved communities. The Light Show enables Girl Scouts to continue to
send children in need to summer camp and to maintain stewardship of its two camp
properties, Camp Edey in Bayport and Camp Sobaco in Yaphank," a release said.
