Light the Way Ravenswood Luminaria

Please note as of 4 December the luminaria kits are sold out.

“2020 has been a difficult year and more than ever we want to bring some light to our community by “Lighting the Way” for Christmas, an annual Ravenswood tradition”, said Dee Scritchfield. ” Luminary bags are a great way to remember loved ones lost by putting a name on the bag or just being a part of the beauty of Christmas by lining our streets with the candle luminaries.”  Everyone will light their candles at 6:00 pm on December 24th and transform Ravenswood into a beautiful winter village.  In the event of inclement weather the luminary will move to December 25h. We will post this on Facebook if we have to change the date.

This year an award will be made for the most lit up street so call your neighbors and order a kit.

If you are interested in participating, please order before November 30th.  The cost is $15 a kit. A Kit contains 10 white bags, candles, votive cups and sand. The candles should burn long past midnight so you have several hours to drive through town and enjoy the impressive sight.

You can pick up an order form at the flyer box at Ravenswood City Hall so there is no need to go inside or for more information or to order call or text Kim Love 304-532-5590 –Dee Scritchfield 304-531-1507 –Butch Shaver 304-532-9047 or Stan Shaver 304-373-9587.

You can pick up your order Saturday December 12th at the Calvary Baptist Church Shelter between 2-4 PM.  If you can’t pick up your luminary kits, delivery is offered.  Just mark your order form for delivery.
