One of the joys of the holiday season is driving or walking through Lochmere neighborhoods to enjoy the festive lights and decorations on front lawns and doors, in windows and even on mailboxes.
To keep the holiday spirit alive, Lochmere is hosting its 4th Annual (we took lasst year off) Lochmere Decorating Contest. Gather your family and create a lighting display or decorate the outside of your house. Once again this will be a People’s Choice contest. After looking at the houses, you will be able to vote for your favorites. These are the important facts:
(1) There will be 6 categories for you to choose from (you can participate in only 1 category):
- Best overall display
- Best classic display
- Best themed display
- Best animated display
- Best "Through A Child's Eyes" display
- Best doorway or mailbox display
(2) Register on Sign-Up Genius HERE no later than December 15. Don't forget that each residence will be allowed to enter in one (1) category only.
(3) All participating houses must be decorated by December 13.
(4) Residents can choose their favorites from December 14 through midnight on December 22. Participating houses must leave their lights on from 6:00 PM to 9:30 PM on those dates.
(5) A list of participating houses along with their addresses and category entered will be posted on lochmere.org.
