Richmond Hill Christmas Decoration Contest

The City of Richmond Hill will hold its first-ever Christmas decoration contest. The decorations must be a residential yard located within the city limits of Richmond Hill, and entries must be called into City Hall by December 12. Yards will be judged on the evening of December 15, and winners will be announced at the City Council meeting on December 16. Categories include: 1) best use of lights; 2) most original; 3) most elegant; and 4) the “Griswold Award” (most lights and decorations in one yard). Winners will receive a gift certificate to a local business or restaurant and a small yard sign announcing their win.
