The Sharon Woods Luminaria Tradition

Light up your property this Christmas Eve!

With the changing seasons and cooler weather comes favorite holiday traditions. Whether it’s a family recipe passed down for generations, a favorite movie watched with loved ones, or delivering sweet treats to neighbors, we all have special things that mark the season.

Our Sharon Woods community is no different. For the past 50 years, we have held onto a cherished tradition called “Luminaria,” which is the lighting of candles on our property fronts on Christmas Eve. The Sharon Woods Civic Association invites all residents to participate in this unique experience by placing candles (usually 6–9) in paper bags or plastic milk jugs, weighed down with sand or kitty litter, and placing them along the front of their property on Christmas Eve.

You can purchase your candles, 3 for $1, from our association by filling out this form and mailing it with a check to the address indicated on the form. Please send us your order by Friday, November 26. Candles will be delivered in early December.

We hope you’ll join us in lighting up Sharon Woods this Christmas Eve!
