This effort is so much more than the half million lights spread over a mile through beautiful Menominee Park: Oshkosh Celebration of Lights supports our local community with an annual food drive. Since 2001, attendees to the annual holiday event have donated 80 tons of non-perishable food, which has been turned over to local pantries to feed those in need here, in the Oshkosh area.
