Residents are invited to light up the town to show off their holiday spirit in the coming weeks.
The town is now seeking entries for the “Berlin Lights up the Town” contest, a home decorating competition for the holiday season. Residents have until Dec. 1 to sign up.
“Berlin has a lot of community spirit,” said Ivy Wells, the town’s economic and community development director. “It’s time to show it off.”
With the cancellation of Berlin’s annual Christmas parade because of COVID-19, Wells said the town was looking for a way to remain festive despite the pandemic. When Brian Robertson of the Berlin Printery suggested a house decorating contest, Wells jumped on the idea.
