First off, THANK YOU, one and all for participating in this year’s WABA Holiday Window Decorating Contest. The judges had a hard time deciding and in a couple cases we ended up with ties.
Second, THANK YOU, to all that attended the Holiday Wrap Party at Urban Orchard Cider Co. It was fun and we’ve already started discussion on how to make it even better next year.
We know some of you were not able to be there for the awards, so (drumroll) here are the award winning windows.
