Check Out the Best 'Decked' House in Media Patch

You voted and this house was the top local vote-getter in our Deck the House contest.

Who has the best “decked” house in Media Patch? According to users who voted in our annual Deck the House contest, Aline Anderson has the best holiday lights in Media Patch. We had tons of national entries in this year’s Deck the House contest and in our quest to find the most over-the-top holiday decorations in the country, we’ve seen everything from a life-size Santa to holiday lights so bright they could blind the neighbors.

We’re still looking for the one home so spectacularly decorated that it could be the national grand prize winner of our contest. We will choose 24 finalists from all our entries across the country. From Dec. 18- Dec. 27, vote for your …

What Can a School District Buy for $100,000?

Patch answers the question our holiday contest poses.

With Patch organizing a holiday light contest that awards the best display with $100,000 for its school district, we wanted to see what that money could buy. If you simply take a photo of the great holiday lights at your house and add it to this page, that $100 grand could soon be in local school children's hands.  Like kids heading off to the school store with a crisp $5 bill in their pockets, district officials in your town could be answering the question of what to do with that money. Instead of painstaking choices among rubber pencil grips, sweet erasable pens or Hannah Montana stickers, administrators will weigh among curriculum, facility or activity purchases for students at their elementary, middle and/or high schools.
