Unfortunately, there is no way to turn off a glow stick. The light from a glow stick comes from mixing two chemicals together. One chemical is inside a fragile glass vial, suspended in the second chemical. Whe the glass breaks, the chemicals mix and you get light until the chemicals finish reacting. There are military surplus stores and camping supply departments that sell glow stick covers. You "turn off" the light by dousing it -- covering it.
