Ed is the true “brains” behind the annual “Look Up Laurel” celebration and this anticipated event would not take place if it were not for his vision, financial contribution, time and true pyrotechnic skillset! As he does each year for his incredible Halloween and Christmas displays located near the intersection of Brixton and Halstead Drive, Ed makes detailed preparations for presenting his final craft months in advance. Not surprising, Ed has an electrical engineering degree from Georgia Tech and is instrumental in pulling off Look Up Laurel!
Steve is the main anchor house that hosts the abundance of food dishes, desserts and treats provided by thoughtful neighbors and friends. Steve is known to provide a smorgasbord of smoked meats such as ribs, chicken, bacon wrapped jalapeno “poppers”, etc. He also provides a unique selection of refreshing summer libations- a perfect complement to help wash down a full meal!
Melissa (and her husband Troy) is another premier host that is known for her flowing frozen margaritas. The last few years, the Steiners have embraced the Look Up Laurel celebration and have become well known in the Laurel Springs community for their cold refreshments as well as their amazing turf field that guests use for all kinds of activities- and the Fourth is a perfect place for kids to celebrate!
The Kangs are another host house and every year for the Look Up Laurel celebration, Seung wheels out his well-seasoned Blackstone flattop grill to provide guests with the best smash burgers in the community (Culver’s, Steak n’ Shake and Five guys can’t stand up to Seung’s sliders!). These fresh hot burgers are a perfect complement to an already packed array of various dishess.
Daryle Ridley and his son, Knox, have become a staple with the annual “Look Up Laurel” celebration. They may not live in Laurel Springs; however, this dynamic tech duo are frequent visitors and are instrumental in assisting with “behind the scenes” requirements for this annual Fourth of July extravaganza (including the creation and maintenance of this website!).
