The Christmas Lighting Challenge had 81 homes and businesses in 4
communities participating the largest challenge yet. Heeding the community’s
desire to see this event reinstated during the holiday season, A Sweet Event again
spearheaded the operation it started in 2015. Over 1000 votes are in and over ten
thousand views of the online lighting map prove this region loves Christmas lights!
DETAILS
The community chosen winners will be announced Friday the 22nd.
Most winners will be present Friday at Bentleyville for this award ceremony.
Event takes place at 10:00 a.m. in front of the giant tree.
