Effingham, IL-(Effingham Radio)- Visit Effingham was thrilled with the amount of participation in our tenth annual Holiday Lights & Festive Sights competition! We received over 800 votes in the past week and enjoyed seeing our community continue this festive holiday tradition again this year.
We are happy to announce the winners of the Holiday Lights & Festive Sights competition are the following:
- The More, The Merrier Award: The Nunag Family at 1104 Holiday Drive
- The Hallmark House Award: The Barr Family at 1008 Beckman Drive
- The Spirit of Effingham Business Award: Tom Henderson State Farm – donating their $250 prize, and matching it with their own donation of $250, to the Effingham Child Development Center for the bus stop in Memory of Walker and Rosie Bryan for the bus stop.
Each winner will receive $250 and a sign to be displayed in their yard designating them as the winner of their category in the competition.
We would like to thank everyone who participated in the lighting competition this year. Whether you entered yourself or for a friend, made the top three or just voted for your favorites, we appreciate you getting involved. If you’re looking for a fun, drivable family activity, maps of the top three homes and businesses in each category are still available online or at the Effingham Tourism Office, at 201 E. Jefferson Ave. We invite you to stop by and pick one up!
We hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and takes time to visit all the great homes/businesses who helped light up the City of Effingham this year!
