Project Blue Light During The Holiday Season,,,

To facilitate this honor we are once again asking residents and businesses to please join us in Project Blue Light. Project Blue Light participation simply involves the placing a single Christmas candle in one of your windows, with the candle to be lit by a single blue bulb.”

The purpose of the blue light is threefold:

First, the blue light is in memory of all of the men and women of law enforcement who have paid the ultimate sacrifice or have been disabled in the line of duty, this year and those before.

Second, the light is in honor of those who remain on duty and within the profession of law enforcement. Despite the threats of not returning home at the end of their shifts, they continue to report for duty daily.

Lastly, the blue lights are in appreciation of the officers who will be serving during the holidays. While many businesses are closed and families and friends gather to enjoy the holiday’s festivities, officers remain on duty to protect our families, homes and businesses.

The placing of your single blue light candle is a simple process, but it says a lot. We ask for your support and assistance by participating in Project Blue Light.”

The majority of people use one blue light in a window, but some people put up a display of blue lights. Law Enforcement workers appreciate the gesture, regardless of the number of blue lights.
