The Dwight Rotary Club is looking to revive the tradition of holiday lighting in Rotary Park/Pinecone Path. They are especially inviting businesses and organizations in Dwight to take part in this activity, but individuals may participate as well.

The Dwight Rotary invites you to set up a Christmas tree as a display in Rotary Park, decorated in any appropriate style. You may wish to “advertise” your business, honor an individual, represent your organization, etc, with the decorations on your tree. Other decorations may be added to your designated display site. A small sign advertising your organization may also be placed near your display.

A power pole has been installed at the east entrance to Rotary Park to provide electricity for displays.

Exact location and size of your area will depend upon how many displays are to be set.

  1. Set up times will be determined as plans progress. The lighting/opening date for the display will be shortly after Thanksgiving, perhaps in conjunction with the Christmas parade. The displays should be removed by January 6.

If your organization would be interested in participating, please respond by the end of October so final plans may be made.

Please respond to Dale Adams at   dadams75@sbcglobal.net

It is hoped to make this a yearly event, with the cooperation of the businesses and organizations of the community.
