Carols will begin at 5:45pm each of the 4 nights in the 1000 Houghton Avenue, Saginaw parking lot located on Covenant HealthCare campus. People will gather to shine a light using flashlights, glow foam tubes or anything that lights up, towards the kids’ windows at 6pm for two minutes. Free flashlights will be provided to the first 100 attendees each night by Impact Saginaw.
