Light up a Life

5:30 pm - 7:00 pm

Big Blue Bear - 101 Piute Dr, Kernville

The holiday season will soon be here and for a growing of local residents,
Light up a Life is its official kick off.

Light up a Life, Hoffmann's annual remembrance ceremony,
is a much-anticipated holiday tradition for many in Kern County
and the Antelope Valley who wish to honor the memory of loved
ones who have passed away. More than 500 guests attended the
Bakersfield ceremony at The Marketplace last year to enjoy the camaraderie,
the poignant reading of names and the joyous lighting of the Christmas tree.

The tree-lighting ceremonies are free and open to the public.
Attendees may honor or memorialize a loved one by placing a symbolic
light on the tree. Guests are asked to make a $10 donation for each
individual they honor. Those who donate $100 in memory of a special
family member of friend will be recognized at the ceremony as Starlight
Sponsors and will receive a commemorative ornament.

To order a light in memory of a loved one who has passed away or
to honor one still living, please call (661) 410-1010. You may also order a light
the night of the event.
