Enter Patch's “Deck the House” Contest For a Chance to Win $100,000

Did you decorate your house for the holidays this year? Enter our "Deck the House" contest and you could win $100,000 for your local school district and $500 to pay your electric bills!

We’re launching our annual Deck the House Contest to find the most over-the-top holiday decorations in America—the best “decked” house in the country—the one home so spectacularly decorated that everyone in town jokes your holiday decorations could rival Rockefeller Center’s. If this sounds like your house, upload a photo or video of your home to our contest page from now through Dec. 16 at http://deckthehouse.patch.com/contest/shorewood. Only residents of Patch towns are eligible to enter. We’ll select 24 regional finalists, and from them, pick one grand prize winner. Patch will pay up to $500 of the utility bill for each finalist, while our national winner will have $100,000 donated to his or her local school district. So, what are you …

I did decorate my front porch but unfortunately my decorations were stolen last night. Police said this was common in Shorewood so don't put anything you want to lose out there. Also said it was teenagers that usually do this type of thing. Parents, please instill in your children it is not nice to take other peoples stuff.   more ›
