WEST SPRINGFIELD – A Night of Light, the CHD Cancer House of Hope annual luminaria fundraising event, returns to the Green at Storrowton Village on the grounds of the Eastern States Exposition (the Big E) on Thursday, November 15, 2018 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Storrowton Tavern will serve hot chocolate, cider, and snacks.
The event features hundreds of luminary bags that are lit and placed on the Storrowton Village Green to honor and remember those we have lost to cancer and those who are survivors. This beautiful evening of music, remembrance and hope honors friends and loved ones and supports the many programs and services offered by Cancer House of Hope. Luminary Bags are $5 each and can be personally inscribed in honor of a friend or loved one. To dedicate a luminaria bag, visit www.chd.org/luminaria
