Orange's First Entry in $100,000 Deck the House Contest

The town came close to winning it all last year. Could this be the house that takes home the grand prize this year?


A little friendly competition never hurts, especially when there’s $100,000 on the line!

So if you think your holiday decorations are the best in town, upload a picture of your house and enter our Deck the House Contest. And don’t worry about all those lights racking up the utility bill because if you’re voted a finalist Patch will give you up to $500 to cover the expense.

Last year an Orange house was voted a top 24 national finalist in the contest, in which the house with the most votes wins $100,000 for its town's public schools.

We know some of you out there may have decorations up that aren’t as extravagant as these, by Maria S. That’s OK! We’d still love to have a photo of your house in the gallery so we can show how Orange has awesome holiday spirit.

Have fun and happy holidays!
