SYRACUSE – The Syracuse-Wawasee Chamber of Commerce held a light pole decorating contest in October.
For the third consecutive year for the contest, it was recognized that the event continues to grow in popularity with 23 participating businesses and organizations, according to a news release from the Chamber.
Along the Ind. 13 corridor, businesses were invited and encouraged to select a light pole and decorate it for the fall season. The décor added not only as a welcome to the community but added a fun and festive atmosphere during the Halloween weekend, the release stated.
Syracuse-Wawasee Executive Director Renea Salyer posted photos of each submission online via the Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/swchamberoc and entries were judged by the number of “likes” they received by the over 2,800 followers of the page.
The winners of this year’s contest were recently announced and they are: first place, Uptown Beauty Joint; second place, Indiana Dimensional Coatings; and third place, ReMax Partners Syracuse. Each winning business received a trophy along with a prize from Dockside Apparel & Gifts/DK Promotions.
Details regarding a similar event (Let it Glow Competition) to be held during December will be announced in the near future.
