Lights in the Heights 2024 - Update / by Michael Graves

Planning for this years LITH event is well underway! Thank you to all the behind the scenes dedicated group of volunteers who are busy getting sponsors, ordering merchandise, and planning the LITH Bash to make sure the cost of security, permits, and of course the ever necessary "facilities" (port-a-potties) costs are covered.

You can help by purchasing your LITH Bash tickets today, if you haven't done so yet, aside from helping offset the cost of the event - you're bound to have a great time with your neighbors and friends!

LITH Bash
Friday, Oct . 15th 

Eureka Heights Brewing
941 W 18th St, Houston, TX 77008.

In addition, you can support the LITH Bash fundraising effort by contributing auction items to the event. So if you or your business has event tickets, signed memorabilia, gift baskets, or any other item you'd like to donate email the LITH Bash volunteers at LITH@woodland-heights.org. Remember all proceeds from the LITH Bash and auction help cover the cost of the annual LITH event in December.

One of the wonderful parts about LITH is being able to stroll down the route and see the decorated homes along the route while listening to the different bands and entertainment from your neighbors front porches. Neighbors along the 2024 route, Byrne, Euclid, and 7 1/2th Streets, have received notifications about volunteering their porches for music or entertainment venues or letting us know what music or entertainment they have already planned for their own porches so we can coordinate the types of music so all musicians can be heard.

That free music concert is provided courtesy the bands and neighbors who have volunteered their talent and porches to create an  evening of music and merriment that is typical of this neighborhood tradition.

If you live on Byrne, Euclid, or 7 1/2th Streets and would like to volunteer your porch to host a musical act email entertainment@woodland-heights.org the volunteers who are coordinating the porch musicians will be happy to hear from you!
