In last year’s press release for the event Rabbi Raphi Steiner, director of Chabad of Guelph, said, “The Menorah serves as a symbol of Guelph’s dedication to preserve and encourage the right and liberty of all its citizens to worship God freely, openly, and with pride.”  All are welcome to take part in the celebration.
