Ephrata will honor the millions who have defended our freedom with the annual Veterans Day Luminary Trail on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. at the Winters Leadership Memorial along the Winters Memorial Trail.
Nearly 400 luminaries will illuminate the Veterans Plaza and Winters Memorial Trail, honoring the more than 41 million Americans who have served in the U.S. Military. Since 2014, this moving tribute has become one of Ephrata’s most cherished community events.
The tribute begins at sunset and is free and open to all, inviting visitors to walk through the illuminated trail in remembrance and gratitude.
The event will feature several meaningful additions to enhance the experience. More details to come.
To sponsor a luminary, you can donate at the event, visit the Mainspring of Ephrata office (Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m.), or donate online below.
Want to honor a veteran in a lasting way? Order a personalized Veterans brick to be placed at the Winters Leadership Memorial Plaza, email lisa@mainspringofephrata.org for an order form or online below.
All bricks placed at the memorial automatically receive a luminary bag every year!
