The Masonic Lodge is gearing up already for Bonac Lights, a holiday light display that raises money for the East Hampton High School Student Association and scholarships. It is looking for business and individual sponsors to buy light displays that can be reused year after year.

Selections can be seen at thechristmaslightemporium.com, but ordering is through Brian Lester or Allene Bono at 631-907-3500.

Bonac Lights will be open on Friday and Saturday nights from Thanksgiving weekend through Christmas.
