Fill your yard with holiday cheer for Grafton-wide decorating contest
Grafton Celebrates the Holidays may be canceled this year due to the pandemic, but a town wide decorating contest is designed to light up the holiday spirit.
Grafton Recreation is sponsoring the contest, with winners selected in three categories: Best Light Display, Best Decoration Display, and Best Business.
Registration ends November 15. Maps will be made, marked with participating homes and businesses, so Graftonites can view and vote for their favorite.
Is this sounding like a potential plot for a Hallmark Christmas movie for anyone?
Viewing will be December 5-13. Register here.
