Holiday lights to be judged Dec. 11-18
Bartlett City Beautiful Commission is sponsoring its annual Holiday Lighting Contest for the city’s best residential and business uses of exterior Christmas decorations during Dec. 11-18. The final judging for awards will begin at 5 p.m. on the evening of Dec. 18.
A panel of judges will award a first, second, third place to residences and one commercial property winner. The winners are chosen from among 12 finalists, each representing a subsection of the city. The top winners will each receive a yard sign and a handsome plaque.
The decorations will be judged on their beauty and originality, not necessarily on the cost invested or on the amount of decorations you have.
Any questions can be directed to Kenneth Parks.
