Happy Holidays to all our neighbors in Foothill Knolls! If this is your first Christmas in our neighborhood, we welcome you! Foothill Knolls has a tradition of Illuminating our neighborhood on Christmas Eve and Christmas Night. We would like to invite all our neighbors to get involved this year.
What are LUMINARY LIGHTS? Essentially, they are Christmas lights for our neighborhood. They are made by standing a candle up in a paper bag partially filled with sand. The luminaries are placed on the curb, about 6 feet apart. When they are lit, they give a beautiful, gentle candle glow to our neighborhood.
Anyone who has seen streets full of luminaries can tell you how lovely they look because it is something you never forget! People from throughout Pleasanton drive by to enjoy the beauty of our neighborhood on Christmas Eve and Christmas Night. We are blessed with a neighborhood of many fine children and to make this project work, we need their help. Making luminaries is easy and fun, plus; the reward of helping create a candlelit neighborhood is immediate.
Everyone is encouraged to help. We will find a way to ensure that everyone who wants to participate will get to do so. We need some adults and lots of children to help. Properly organized and staffed, we can “illuminate” Foothill Knolls with one to two hours of work (play) on the day before Christmas. We need 3-5 trucks to distribute sandbags, so let me know if you can help in that way.
Even if you cannot participate but plan to be home on Christmas Eve or Christmas Night, please help us by lighting the candles in front of your home at dusk. Two candles will be in each bag, one to light Christmas Eve and the other to light Christmas Night. We also ask everyone NOT to park their cars on the street. The candles look so much prettier when visible up and down the street. Your driveway will not be blocked.
LUMINARIES INFO:
On Sunday, December 24th at 11am, join your neighbors for treats, teamwork and tradition!
Meet at the cul-de-sac by the park to assemble and distribute luminaries. Kids and adults (and pickup trucks!) are all needed to pitch in. Please bring any sand shovels or clean containers to scoop sand and a small stool if you want to sit.
LUMINARIES INSTRUCTIONS:
On the evening of December 24, light ONE candle in each bag. Light the ones in front of your house, and help out your neighbors, too.
On the evening of December 25, light the OTHER candle in each bag.
Bags will be picked up on the morning of December 26th
If possible, please park cars in your driveway rather than on the street on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day nights.
Happy Holidays!
