We’re still smiling from an unforgettable evening at the Lakes Region Lantern Festival. 🏮🌊 From decorating and launching lanterns to watching them glow across the water at dusk, it was so special to see our community come together.

We couldn’t have done it without the incredible people and organizations who helped bring it to life:

Food: Pours & Petals, Gusto Italian Cafe, Lynnie’s Food Truck

Entertainment: Lakes FM 101.5, Swipe Right Cover Band, Ralph Allen

Sponsors: Key Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Rochester, BreakAway Vacation Rentals, 104.9 The Hawk, Mountain Country NH, Franklin Savings Bank, Hawthorn Creative, The Law Offices of Mark H. Lamper, Capital Title & Escrow, Amoskeag Beverages, Coca-Cola Beverages Northeast

Special thanks to the Mount Washington Cruises team, our amazing volunteers, NH Department of Environmental Services, NH Marine Patrol, and the Town of Center Harbor for their time, support, and partnership.

Until next year, keep looking for the light.✨
