Effingham, IL-(Effingham Radio)- For many families, taking a drive to see Effingham’s beautifully decorated houses and businesses is a holiday tradition. This season, Visit Effingham is trading competition for community and turning Effingham into a twinkling wonderland for our first-ever Holiday Lights & Festive Sights TOUR. This year, we invite you to bundle up, pile your crew into the car and take a driving tour, featuring some of Effingham’s merriest – and brightest – homes!
There are a variety of ways in which you can participate in the tour. Visit our social media channels to download a scorecard or pick one up at Effingham City Hall, located at 201 E. Jefferson Ave. Each scorecard has a QR code that links to a drivable route on Google Maps. Feel free to also make your own route and include festive stops that aren’t on the tour, like a stop at Ginger Ale’s for a holiday treat or a detour to our drive-thru light display, Wonderland in Lights! Use the scorecard, as you take the tour, to rate each display and take notes. One dazzling home will win our People’s Choice Award of $250!
To cast your vote, visit surveymonkey.com/r/holidaylights24. You have until Monday, December 30th, at noon to vote for your favorite holiday lights! Vote at the link provided or in-person at Effingham City Hall, located at 201 E. Jefferson Avenue. The People’s Choice Award winner will be announced on the afternoon of the 30th. We hope you enjoy this year’s entries, and we thank you for helping us carry on this treasured community tradition in a fun, new way!
