An 8-foot menorah at The Greene will be lit Monday evening during a community-wide celebration.

Some 10,000 large, public menorahs will be lit on Monday as a part of a worldwide Hanakkuh observance and celebration, including Dayton’s own ceremony.

Following the lighting, there will be a LED Glow Show from the Cincinnati Circus, singing, dancing and special doughnuts and hot Latkes— traditional potato pancakes.

Dayton’s menorah lighting, sponsored by Chabad throughout the world, “hopes to help children and adults of all walks of life discover and enjoy the holiday message.”

Throughout the Greater Dayton area, Chabad will be presenting many Hanukkah events and celebrations, including public menorah lightings, a giant menorah made from s'mores, a car Menorah parade, Latke parties, Hannukah parties for seniors and young professionals and more.
