Light Up Crofton - Scout Troop 758 has scheduled this year’s Light-up Crofton event for Sunday, December 14th. They are asking participants to put out their luminary kits and light the candles at 5:30 PM.
You can be part of this community tradition of lighting up our neighborhoods with candle luminaries. Troop 758 sells the kits as an annual fundraiser for their troop. Each kit contains supplies for 10 luminaries: 10 white bags & 2” votive candles, sand, and instructions. Pricing ranges from $15 for one kit to as low as $10 per kit for multiple kit orders. Kits are delivered to your home by the scouts before December 14th. Participating families line the curb in front of their homes, stairs, driveways, and walkways.
This event is organized by Scout Troop 758. They also accept donations to place luminaries in common areas (neighborhood entrances, etc.). To order your luminary kit, please visit https://bit.ly/4oo2tTu.

JANUARY
There will be a CCA General Membership Meeting on Monday January 12th, 2026 at 7:00 PM in the cafeteria at Crofton Elementary School. CCA Treasurer James Kitchin will present the FY27 Budget Highlights, and he and the Board will be there to answer your questions.
We will hold a vote to update the CCA Bylaws. Many residents want us to have online or email votes, but to do so, we need to update our Bylaws under the old rules, which means we need at least 75 residents to attend the meeting!
This will be a family-friendly event with activities for children in the school gym, including crafts and games. So, bring the whole family.
The Crofton Civic Association will host a special one-time event, "Coffee with Candidates," on Wednesday, January 28th, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at Chesapeake Coffee Roasters, 2100 Concord Blvd., Suite J, Crofton, MD 21114. There will be free coffee tasting and tours of the Chesapeake Coffee Roasters roasting facility, where guests will learn how coffee is blended, flavored, and roasted. There will also be some light food fare provided. We are inviting candidates from both parties in the following local elections to attend:
Anne Arundel County Executive, Anne Arundel County Council Districts 4 & 7, Maryland Districts 33B & 21
We are not asking the candidates to give speeches, but rather to be present to meet residents, discuss their ideas, and answer questions over a cup of coffee. The event is free, but capacity is limited to the first 100 people to RSVP. Register today at https://bit.ly/49rpYXG.
