What to know
The Annual Glimmer of Hope is scheduled for the second Saturday in August at Twilight Lake in Bay Head, with the following Sunday used as the rain date. The evening event centers on floating paper lanterns across the lake and supports art and science supplies for local eighth-grade students. Lanterns are purchased in advance, and participants gather around Twilight Lake for a reflective community night. Guests should check the official event page for lantern sales, timing, lake access, parking, and weather decisions.
