Ozarks Healthcare Foundation to host 30th Annual Lights of Life Ceremony on Dec. 12

The Ozarks Healthcare Foundation invites community members to honor the life of a loved one this holiday season with its 30th annual Lights of Life event. 

Lights of Life offers community members an opportunity to honor loved ones by sponsoring a Christmas tree light with a donation of ten dollars. Lights will be used to decorate Ozarks Healthcare’s new Christmas tree, which will be displayed within its main entrance.

A tree lighting ceremony will be held in conjunction with Lights of Life on Monday, Dec. 12, at 5:00 p.m. inside Ozarks Healthcare’s main entrance at 1100 Kentucky Ave. in West Plains. The tree lighting will include a brief ceremony followed by holiday refreshments and music. 

A photo op with Santa will also be available for children prior to the lighting, from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. The public is invited to attend. 

To purchase a light, drop by the Ozarks Healthcare Foundation office located at #12 Parkway Center in West Plains anytime between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday.
