Buy luminaries to help Troop 1

Jamestown Troop 1 Boy Scouts are sponsoring Jamestown's third annual "Starry Night," to be held Dec. 1, the same night as the tree lighting.

At 4:30 p.m., participating Jamestown businesses and residences will light up their walkways, steps, entrances, etc. with rows of luminaries provided by Troop 1. The result is a magical winter scene for pedestrians and other passers-by. Businesses that help sponsor lighting in a public space will have their name included in a thank you letter in the Jamestown Press after the event.

The following areas are available as adopt-a-spots: The seawall along Conanicus Avenue ($100), Shoreby Hill Green ($100), the Jamestown Police Station ($100), the Recreation Center ($50), Veterans Memorial Square ($100), the Post Office ($50), the fire station ($40), Jamestown Troop 1 choice ($25).

All adopt-a-spot locations will be set up and collected at the end of the evening by members of Troop 1. Individual luminary kits, which include the makings of 10 luminaries, are available for purchase for $10, by calling Diane Archibald at 423-3094.

Kits must be ordered by Nov. 27 and all proceeds will benefit Troop 1.
