Honor Loved Ones with Luminaries Dec. 17th
Join friends and family in Uptown Shelby on the 17th of December to add your own contribution to the glowing light on Court Square. For several years Uptown Shelby Association has organized the traditional display of lights to complement the Friday night horse-drawn carriage rides and other family fun in the Uptown district.
A luminary donation of $5 adds a light to the display that can be made in honor of a friend or family member, or “You may choose to make a memorial donation that remembers a relative or friend who has passed on,” said Wade Nichols, Uptown Shelby Association’s Executive Director. “We will display the names of those honored and remembered, and the funds raised will be used to replenish the Christmas Lights around the Court Square.”
If you wish to honor someone, send your contribution of $5 per luminary to Uptown Shelby Association by December 15th. Make checks payable to Uptown Shelby Association and mail them to: P.O. Box 2042, Shelby, NC 28151. Call with questions at 704.484.3100.
