Light up Wethersfield and help the Richard Keane Foundation
December 6, 2016 - December 24, 2016
The town of Wethersfield, CT has lit its streets with luminarias on Christmas Eve for 41 years. Again this year, the Richard Keane Foundation is selling luminaria kits to make it easy to participate in this beautiful tradition.
Each luminaria kit includes a 14-hour candle, the special bag, and complete instructions. Kits cost $1.50 apiece. All funds raised via the luminaria sale will support the Keane Foundation 9/11 Memorial Sports Center, which honors Richard “Dick” Keane, who was killed in the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 while on a business trip to the World Trade Center.
Kits can be purchased at Wethersfield Travel and will be available until noon on Christmas Eve. You can order your kits by calling 860-257-3775 and they will be waiting for you to pick them up.
If you light your luminarias at dusk on Christmas Eve, they will shine all night.
