Bring the community together

Keeps the tradition shining

When Light-Up Diamond Valley faced cancellation in 2025, the Foothills Lions Club stepped forward to keep this cherished holiday tradition alive. Since then, the Club has proudly taken on organizing and delivering the celebration. But it is the generosity and involvment of local businesses, sponsors, volunteers, community organizations and residents that truly brings Light-Up to life.

​

Together, we're not just preserving a holiday tradition. We're helping it grow into something even more special for 

Diamond Valley and the generations to come.
