SCOTCH PLAINS/FANWOOD, NJ -- The annual Rotary Club Luminary Sale begins on Sunday, Dec. 7. Luminary kits (candle, bag, and sand) will be sold at the Fanwood Municipal Garage, 270 North Ave. on Sunday, Dec. 7, Dec. 13-14, and Dec. 20-21, from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. They will also be sold on Christmas Eve (Dec. 24) from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 Noon.
Luminaries are an age old tradition where a candle is nestled in sand at the bottom of a paper bag and placed along sidewalks to create a beautiful lighted walkway. Local Boy Scouts will be on hand to help load sand. Other items, such as lighters, will be available for sale. All proceeds will go so support the various charitable and humanitarian projects in which Rotary is involved.
Additionally, the Rotary Club will also be collecting canned food for local food pantries. For further information, visit the Rotary
