Schuylkill Canal Association Hosting Annual Holiday Luminaria On Saturday, December 11th

On Saturday, December 11th, the Schuylkill Canal Association will be hosting their annual Holiday Luminaria.

The Schuylkill Canal Association invites you to the

Holiday Luminaria
Saturday, December 11th, 6:00 to 9:00 PM, at the Locktender’s House, Lock 60 on the Schuylkill Canal, Mont Clare

Come see the most spectacular light show of the holiday season, hundreds of luminary candles lining the towpath up to the house.

As if stepping back in time to a Dickens’ holiday scene, come inside to enjoy the beautifully decorated house, sing along with the joyful music played by Meadowlark and visit with Santa Claus between 6:30 & 7:30 PM with your little ones.

Partake in holiday treats and hot cider and join in with SCA as we toast our friends with best wishes for a safe and happy holiday season.

The Luminaria is cancelled only if there is a steady downpour of rain.

The magnificent light display is even more mystical if there is a slight drizzle, misty fog or a few inches of snow truly creating a beautiful holiday scene.

All are welcome, a donation of $1 or more will be gladly accepted.

Ample parking is available at Lock 60.

My family looks foward to this event every year. The beauty of seeing hundreds of luminaries lighting up the canal is indescribable. To top it all off, Santa & Mrs. Claus show up to delight the children.

I started out taking a recreational cake decorating class with my mom when I was still living in NY. I loved it and moved to PA to be with my boyfriend (now husband), where I began interning for a bakery in Chestnut Hill.
