The Allied Jewish Federation of Colorado has announced that Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper will once again light the community Menorah on the first night of Chanukah. The public is invited to join in the annual community lighting ceremony on Tuesday, December 7 beginning at 5:30 pm.
I look forward to joining the Denver Jewish community in lighting the community Menorah again this year, said Mayor John Hickenlooper, who will make his second consecutive appearance at the Federations ceremony. Chanukah brings communities across Colorado and the world together in celebration of light, freedom and peace.
Hispanics love Christmas. They're noted for their bright Christmas displays on lawns, with plastic lip-up nativity scenes. I'm glad they're doing it.
