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!
2016 is our 48th year!
Thanks to our Sponsors!
The Candle Lighters would like thank our generous sponsors who have provided services and donations that have allowed the construction and preparation of “Scary Land.” Thank you!
