Wednesday, November 20, 2013

— Gentry Chamber of Commerce will hold a Christmas outside lighting and decorating contest for all residents and businesses within the Gentry School District. The theme for the outside yard/parking lot/windowdisplay/field/home/building decorating contest is “Christmas” and participants are encouraged to be creative.

Those participating are asked to have their décor in place before Dec. 10. Participants are also asked to call the Gentry Chamber of Commerce offi ce at736-2358 and advise of the address of the residence or business to be sure they will not be missed in the judging. Please leave the address on the recorder if necessary, because the chamber office is not staffed full-time.

There will be a grand champion and reservechampion winner in each group, residential and business. All four winners will get a yard sign to display in their front yard for bragging rights. The grand champion winners will also receive $100 in Gentry bucks, and the reserve champions will receive $50 from the Gentry Chamber of Commerce.
