Amador County - Hospice of Amador and Calaveras will have two locations for its Hospice Annual Tree of Lights for Christmas remembrances, the charity announced last week. Ann Metherd, Hospice Volunteer Coordinator, asked area residents to “Come celebrate the joy of remembrance” by sponsoring a light. Metherd said “this year there will be trees in both Amador County and Calaveras County to honor our loved ones.” People can celebrate the life of someone they love with a light. For each 10 dollar donation, Hospice will place a light on the Tree and list the name of the person on a Memorial Board at the site. Hospice will have two Tree Lightings. Metherd said “This year our festivities will include music, a candle lighting celebration, lighting of the tree and refreshments.” Their Tree of Lights in Calaveras County will be lit 5 p.m. Saturday, December 6 at the Calaveras Senior Center, 956 Mountain Ranch Road, in San Andreas. Their Tree of Lights in Amador County will take place on 5 p.m. Sunday, December 7th, at the Hospice Thrift Store at 10776 Argonaut Lane in Jackson. For information, go to Hospice of Amador & Calaveras Thrift Store at 10776 Argonaut Lane in Jackson, at 1500 South HIghway 49, Suite 105, or call (209) 223-5500.
