2019 Luminary Walk & Bonfire

  • 16 Feb 2019

  • Long Lake

I've thought about doing this for awhile now and we're going to give it a shot!  This is just a reason to get outside and say hi to one another before spring arrives.  

  • All lake residents set out a Luminary ~ they're easy to make:
    • Fill a Home Depot bucket with water 
    • Set it outside for one or two days
    • Bring inside for 15 minutes to loosen it from the bucket
    • Go back outside and slowly and gently dump the bucket upside down and your luminary will slip out
    • It will have some thin ice on the top, so break the ice out with a hammer
    • Dump out the water in the luminary 
    • Set down by the lake in front of your house with a candle in it.
    • Or visit our Luminary page for more detailed directions.
  • This is open to neighbors ON and OFF the lake, so please invite others.
  • If you want to have a bonfire at your house feel free
  • There will be luminaries and a bonfire in the middle of the South Basin for folks to gather
  • Make some extras to fill in the gaps for those that are unable to make one.  I plan to make as many as I can.
