Shining on Class of 2020

Jim Thorpe Area School District’s scoreboard is lit up Friday night in honor of the Class of 2020. With graduation ceremonies uncertain because of social distancing, all area school districts lit their stadiums from 7 to 9 p.m. The event was also designed as a reminder for all front-line workers. Parents and seniors celebrated around the region. In Palmerton they gathered for a parade of cars. Blue Mountain Resort joined in, lighting the ski area during that time. BOB FORD/TIMES NEWS
