Deck Your House and Win $100,000 for Local Schools

Patch contest gives readers a chance to show off holiday spirit.

Does your house outshine the others in your neighborhood when it comes to holiday decorations?

If the answer is yes, starting Dec. 8, enter Patch's Deck the House Contest for a chance to win $100,000 for your local public school system, $500 toward your electric bill or bragging rights in your neighborhood.

The contest will run until Dec. 26 and users will vote for the best-decked house in their town. From there, Patch judges will select 24 finalists nationwide, who will get their December electric bill paid by Patch (up to $500).
