Decorate Decatur! I Said Decorate!
Decatur Metro | December 14, 2007
If you happen to see a group of well-dressed people with clipboards trolling the streets of your neighborhood this Sunday, don’t be alarmed. They aren’t checking to see if your lights are on timers or want you to give money to the Democratic Party of Georgia. These folks are compiling a list of the “best dressed” holiday houses in Decatur.
On Sunday, December 16th, these unaccredited “decoration judges” will ride along the city streets looking to dub one Decatur home as the best decorated house in the city. The top ten homes will be displayed on the city’s website.
What do you win? Well the overall winner gets the “Commissioners Cup” according to the city’s website, while runners up get a pic on the website and 364 days of bragging rights (if that’s the kind of neighbor you are).
So, when the sun rises tomorrow, get those semi-wet leaves off the lawn and down to the curb, get up on a ladder and deck the freakin’ halls with lights, swags and giant inflatable snow globes.
If you’re still looking for inspiration after that motivational peptalk, check out the 2006 winners here.
