The Riverwoods Chanukah Celebration was held outdoors at The Flatwoods Heritage Center and featured a giant Menorah built out of donated food cans. After the event, the cans were distributed to local area food pantries.  The evening included lighting of the Menorah by Mayor Ford, a color changing LED robot, and traditional foods.
