A lighted gateway arch greets visitors to the Holiday Lights display.
Join Ringgold County Conservation and the Ringgold Conservation Foundation for the fifth annual Holiday Lights in the Park event at Poe Hollow Park (2434 State Hwy 2 – Mount Ayr).
This year’s displays are the biggest, brightest and best yet. Ringgold County Conservation staff has been working tirelessly to turn our park into a must visit destination for the holidays so visitors can enjoy a drive through Poe Hollow Park, marveling at the lighted displays in our winter wonderland.
A huge thank you to our display sponsors this year. You will be able to view their displays located in the campground and vote on your favorites. Display Sponsors include: AgriVision, Country Blossoms, Edward Jones – Justin Cole, Eighmy Friedrich Monument, Infinity Health, Mount Ayr Lions Club, Munyon Plumbing and Heating, Pioneer – Bishop Farms, Mount Ayr FFA, Mount Ayr United Methodist Church Youth Group, Precision Building – Matt Henle, Ringgold County Hospital, Ringgold County ISU Extension, Mount Ayr Record News, Preferred Properties and South Central Iowa Realty.
Poe Hollow Park gate fee is $10/vehicle for each drive through. Due to arches and tunnels, no vehicles over 8 feet tall will be permitted.
All money raised from this fundraiser will go to the Liberty Lake Development Project.
New this year, Ringgold County Conservation is excited to announce the option to purchase season passes to the Holiday Lights in the Park 2022. Season Passes will be $50 and offer you unlimited entry into the Holiday Lights in the Park event for all regular dates (with the exception of the Holiday Hay Ride December 21).
