Poinsettia and Luminarias event

On Tuesday, December 19, the Extension will hold a Poinsettia and Luminarias event. Our main purpose is to try to encourage the Hispanic population to come to the Extension and discover what we have to offer. Poinsettias were brought into SC from Mexico by Joel Poinset. Luminarias are a Latino Christmas tradition. The event will be from 4 to 6 pm so visitors can walk through the gardens as they follow the luminaries path. If you can help - meeting and greeting visitors, lighting candles or manning the MG booth - let Charlie know.
