Dozens of people gathered together in Marlborough City Center in front of the Walker Building this past Tuesday evening to celebrate the holiday of Chanukah and kindle a 9 foot Menorah. The crowd which included many young families and children heard a beautiful message from Mayor Arthur Vigeant who welcomed everyone on behalf of the City and spoke of the importance of this meaningful tradition and thanked the Chabad Center of Sudbury for organizing this celebration. Counselors Samatha Pearlman and Sean Navin and Cantor Sherman of Temple Emanuel also shared meaningful messages with the assembled.
Following the greetings, Rabbi Freeman lit the Menorah and spoke of the
meaningful message of the Menorah and what this holiday represents and then crowd joined together in joyous song.
