A couple from Orange will be using an epic Christmas display to raise money for charity.
Chris and Maria Small will light up their home at 360 Lincoln Road right after Thanksgiving dinner on Thursday.
Chris Small says the tradition started about five year ago with one small Winnie the Pooh decoration. Now, Chris and Maria Small and their three young sons decorate with 25,000 lights, turning their home into a holiday attraction in Orange.
One hundred hours of building, stringing and wiring leads to the choreographed show that landed the Smalls on the 2013 season of ABC's "Great Christmas Light Fight."
Ever since their appearance on the show, the family has been cashing in on their fame to help charities.
Among all the lights and decorations, the Smalls will be putting out a donation box for the Clifford Beers Clinic, a mental health clinic for underserved children.
