MORE INFO & INSTRUCTIONS

Celebrate on December 31, 2005 with the entire town of Windsor by bringing in the New Year with peace, joy and hope.

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Open a white bag and turn it down 1 inch from the top to form a collar.
2. Place 2 inches of sand in the bag ahead of time; this will cause the bag to stand by itself and will provide a base for the candle; put in place then add the candle and light.
3. On New Year's Eve, place the bags in a line along the sidewalk or the road at even intervals with your neighbors.
4. Candles should be lighted at dusk with fireplace matches or barbecue grill lighter, with the rest of the neighborhood and will burn all evening.
5. Rain date will be the following evening, January 1, 2006.

Precaution:
This product is for outdoor use only and should not be used by unsupervised children and caution should be exercised when using near children.

Note: Remember to pick-up your bags the next morning. And thank you for helping to light our town.
