In a dazzling display of holiday spirit, Lariat and Sorrel Streets, located just off Hawthorne Road to the north of Siphon, have been crowned this year’s winners of the Street or Neighborhood Award. These two streets have transformed into a winter wonderland, showcasing an exceptional level of creativity and festive decorations that are sure to enchant visitors. The Street or Neighborhood Award is an initiative to give special recognition to a specific street or neighborhood that goes above and beyond in their holiday decorations. Lariat and Sorrel Streets stood out for their exceptional displays, capturing the essence of the season and spreading joy to all who visit.
In a departure from previous years, the focus of this year’s competition was on celebrating displays that were not only visually stunning but also innovative and unique. Judges were instructed to seek out the “New and Different,” encouraging participants to explore creative avenues in their holiday decorations. While acknowledging the outstanding efforts of other displays in town, the emphasis this year was on recognizing those who embraced change and introduced new elements to their displays. Despite the challenging decision-making process, the organizers expressed their gratitude to all participants and encouraged everyone to continue elevating their displays for the upcoming years.
To ensure inclusivity, a special category was introduced to acknowledge houses that may not have received a physical award but still deserved recognition for their exceptional efforts. This additional category celebrates the broader community’s commitment to spreading holiday cheer and creating a festive atmosphere for all to enjoy.
