A Magical Evening at the Carleton Place Community Labyrinth

Thanks to all who came out to help "Light up the Labyrinth"! Amazingly all of the 600 luminaries were aglow, with time to spare, before dusk set in. The submitted photos and comments from my fellow committee members really help to capture the special feel of this event!

Many hands (large and small) help to light up the labyrinth!
Kerron opens the labyrinth, and others start to walk the path.
As dusk settles in, the labyrinth is all a-glow!
Lanterns hung and placed with care surround us with a special warmth.

We are so thankful for the friends and families that gathered at the labyrinth this evening.
To the Awesome labyrinth keepers of the Carleton Place Community Labyrinth... I am so grateful to know you all.  Thank you for being a part of this wonderful gift called labyrinth that we have brought to this community.  A perfect night... A spectacular event ....congrats to all and thank you.  Debby

Agreed it was an especially magical evening - and wonderful to have spent a lot of it at the centre of the labyrinth! Chris
I agree as well, we have such a great team and it was so nice to see everyone.  It was a wonderful and fun evening and such a great turnout with lots of help too.  Stephanie

It was a beautiful night with awesome people.  I wish we could order that weather for every event!  The turnout was inspiring.  What would we do without that awesome teacher and her international students too:  I'm still laughing thinking of how the one (male) student blew out the candles in the bags.  The only unfortunate part of the evening is that we can't speak to everyone we would like to greet. Mary

That was really a spectacularly successful evening.  At one point I looked up and there was a crowd of people, round the stones and on the Labyrinth.  It has certainly become a community event! My daughter saw a man and two young children on bikes riding by and one of the children said "Dad, what is going on at the Labyrinth".  They were  aware of the Labyrinth, it is truly part of the community now.  Julia

Local media are very supportive! We make the front page after the event.
