December 11-13. Mark your calendars now for this sweetest of holiday traditions! Dozens of gingerbread houses and castles will fill the main performance hall, designed and decorated by local, and not so local, talents. A team of judges will award prizes for Most Spectacular as well as other categories including Best Holiday Spirit, Most Delicious Looking, Best Representation of a Local Landmark, Most Hilarious and more. Doors open on Friday evening for the sparkling kick-off party (music, bar open) and then the exhibit is open all day on Saturday and Sunday. Exact times to be announced in the fall. The weekend is sponsored by The First National Bank and Spring Tide Property Services.
