One of last year’s winners

The city’s Cheryl Burnette writes in reminding us that the judging for “Decorate Decatur” is just around the corner.

On Sunday December 20th, a set of anonymous judges will troll the four square miles of Decatur and decide who among the decorated homes and businesses deserves the coveted House Cup…I mean Commissioner’s Cup.  (The cup itself is so coveted that it was quite a struggle to get the cup away from last year’s winner.)

Other homes and businesses will also be declared winners and though no cup-honors will be awarded, they will receive braggy signage.

And if your neighbor is asking you to help them get guaranteed attention from the judges (or you just have a favorite house), call 678-553-6573 and leave the address.

Disclaimer: Decorate Decatur does not encourage residents or non-residents to decorate property which is not their own.  Decorating your neighbor’s property without permission may result in a termination of friendship, a lack neighborly hellos at the mailbox, or gaudy retaliation.
