2017 Logan County Relay for
Life Luminary Dedications
L
uminaria dedications are made in honor
of, memory of, and in support of those
who have battled cancer, their caretakers and
others.
Traditional luminaria are paper lanterns with
candle votives set outside after dark.
For the Relay, white paper bags are used and
each has a single name handwritten on it. The
bags line the walking track. Nearing the close
of the Relay, glow sticks are set in each bag
and the name stands out.
During this reverent portion of the event, Hush
Angels, precious young girls and boys in long
fluttery robes with wings and sparkles, carry
‘Silence’ signs as a reminder.
This year there were 511 luminaria honorees
and it took 55 minutes as each name was read
aloud.
