The Longest Night, Join us, Thursday, December 21 @ 4:15 P.M.

Known as Midwinter, Thursday, December 21st, marks the shortest day and longest night of the year for 2023. Please join the Racine CoC and partners as we gather to acknowledge that nighttime, especially during the cold weather, can be very challenging for some of our Racine residents. As many gather with friends and family to enjoy the festivities of the season, others struggle to enjoy the very basic of life's necessities, including a roof over their heads. Join us for a short service at Monument Square on Thursday, December 21st, at 4:15 pm - sundown to mark this point of the year.
