Candle Lighters is a non-profit volunteer organization dedicated to raising funds for non-profit groups and community-based projects in the Tri-City Community. (Fremont, Newark & Union City). We consider ourselves a service and a social organization.
We raise money solely through our annual Ghost House. Open during the last two weeks of October and based in a historical 19th century Carriage House, the Ghost House is a wonderful family-oriented event for all ages!
2017 is our 49th year!
Thanks to our Sponsors!
The Candle Lighters would like thank our generous 2016 sponsors who provided services and donations that allowed the construction and preparation of “The Web.” Thank you!
