Good Morning Lights Gone Wild Fans! It is with a heavy heart that we must announce the Drive thru will not be happening this year. We are a 2 -3 person family operation and our business suffered a loss a couple months ago and 3 weeks ago we lost a family member. This event is very dear to us and we will strive to return next year (may be in a different location temporarily) but for now we will have to say "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" (and for this season) we want to Thank you all for your support and let you know we have continued to build so we are excited for the future, but for the moment we must step back and take care of personal and family matters.

Thank You

Ron and Beth

Pardon our photos, but tonight we are excited to present you with the Lights Gone Wild Teddy Bear(and friends) Patrol Class of 2023!!!
These 144 furry creatures will be coming to fire, police, and ems departments across Northern Michigan over the next few weeks. They have been charged with one mission... To ride along with emergency personnel and be deployed to comfort children in their time of distress. This will give emergency responders yet another tool to help children experiencing tragic circumstances.

Thank You for your support and we can't wait for next years' class :-)
