Something magical is brewing in Hackensack. As the Highway 371 construction nears completion, the Hackensack Game Changers Snowflake & Banners Team invites you to help transform the new corridor into a winter wonderland.
We’re on a mission to “make it snow” with 48 glowing, LED-lit, 4-foot snowflakes and vibrant seasonal banners adorning the new lampposts. This isn’t just decoration - it’s a celebration of community pride, unity, and small-town charm.
During the 1st Street project, Hackensack came alive with dazzling snowflakes and shared joy. Now, we have the chance to go bigger and brighter, stretching beauty and light along 371.
The snowflakes, available in four styles, are designed to sparkle through long winter nights, lifting spirits and warming hearts. Each costs just under $500, is made in the USA, and comes with a 6-year warranty. Banners are under $70 and available in two winter designs.
You can donate as an individual, family, business, book club, church, Lake Association—or simply as a group of friends who love Hackensack. Every contribution helps us light up 371 and show the world the energy and love that lives here.
This volunteer-driven effort is led by the Hackensack Game Changers, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to beautifying and rejuvenating our town. We’ve endured the dust and disruption of construction—now let’s celebrate with a corridor of light and magic that uplifts everyone who passes through.
Imagine driving through Hackensack this December, greeted by glowing snowflakes dancing in the crisp night air. That’s the vision. Let’s build it together.
