Last Chance to See “A Celebration in Lights” at Camp Pa-Qua-Tuck

Dec. 15, 2010 - PRLog -- (Center Moriches, NY) — There is still time, but not much, to come to Camp Pa-Qua-Tuck and visit “A Celebration in Lights,” the only holiday light show on the East End of Long Island. The event will take place December 17-19 and again on December 22-23. The camp is located on Chet Swezey Road in Center Moriches.

This event includes a spectacular light show that can be experienced by driving through the grounds of Camp Pa-Qua-Tuck. Now East End residents will no longer have to travel great distances to view a holiday light show.

Gates open at 5 p.m. and close at 9 p.m. Tickets are $15.00 per car, with proceeds to be equally distributed between Camp Pa-Qua-Tuck and Independent Group Home Living (IGHL), and their work with developmentally disabled children and adults in the community. Tickets may be purchased at IGHL or at the gate.

Volunteers are also needed to help out at the event. To volunteer, call Bridget at (631) 878-1070 or visit celebrationinlightsli.org.
