A holiday light display in East Northport is raising money for Ronald McDonald House.
The display was built using Andrew Reid's island of misfit decorations. The 19-year-old says he collects broken holiday decor that people throw away and spends all year restoring them.
Reid says he's been doing the light show at his East Northport home on Oxbow Court for four years now. But as this is the biggest display yet, he says he's collecting donations for the Ronald McDonald House. So far. he says he's collected $400 in the two nights it's been open.
“I love to help people out,” he said. “I'm going to school to be a paramedic so I want to help people out as much as I can. And I like to make people happy, everyone knows that, so I was like – why not do a display and raise money for kids with cancer as well."
The display is open to the public every night from 5:30-9 p.m., weather permitting. Feel free to bring broken decorations that Reid can add to his collection.
