Pennsauken Township would like to recognize the very best in holiday decorations throughout town. And as you’re doing your best Clark Griswold impersonations, there could be a reward for your efforts this year!

A team of light seekers will be dispatched in their Rudolph-drawn sleighs to locate the most impressive expressions of Christmas spirit the town has to offer. To have your decorated home considered for this year’s contest, complete the Township’s online form by Monday, December 13, 2021 and your home will be added to the list.

Official judging will occur between the hours of 7:00-9:00 p.m. on Dec. 16 and 17. Each judging team will perform “street view” evaluations of your home for creativity, holiday spirit, and general appeal. If you don’t have the brightest house in town, don’t worry; all types of décor will be considered, from nostalgic to Griswold or religious to detailed. All entries are welcome. Several winners will be chosen; these homes will be recognized during Facebook Live videos right before Christmas. All houses considered for this competition will be included in a list shared online and via social media so that residents can enjoy the local light displays.

Help spread the holiday spirit throughout our neighborhoods by decorating your home or visiting those who do! For more information, call 856-665-1000 x104 or email emartz@twp.pennsauken.nj.us.
