Chico, CA — The glittering Xmas tree in Chico's City Plaza was joined by another holiday symbol of good will — a brightly lit menorah — Thursday night.
“Darkness is chased away by illumination, by acts of goodness and kindness,” said Rabbi Mendy Zwiebel before he lit a nine-foot-tall menorah, a kind of candle holder, that had been temporarily set up in front of the bandstand in the downtown park.
