Memorial Day Lantern Lighting

At the Memorial Day Lantern Lighting we gather at dusk to honor of fallen soldiers and loved ones who have passed away.  We invite you and your family to join us on Memorial Day evening as we gather at sunset to take part in this beautiful memorial celebration at the Boardwalk. Community members, including several military veterans, are encouraged to write heartfelt messages on paper lanterns to honor those living and those who have passed away.  Guests enjoy patriotic music before lighting the lanterns along the lake at The Boardwalk. 

“We are grateful for those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice for us and our country, and are honored to be able to host this event to remember them and other loved ones who have passed,” said Kent Puckett, General Manager of Towne Lake.

The evening will be full of everything red, white and blue: At 8pm, each person who received a lantern will be able to light their lantern and have a moment of appreciation for the sacrifices others have made. It will be a special occasion that you won't want to miss!
