'Deck the House' in Patch's $100,000 School Donation Contest

Our big holiday decoration contest will also enable 24 finalists to win $500 each toward their electric bills.

Upload a photo or video of your holiday lights and Patch could pay your electric bill or donate $100,000 to your schools.

‘Tis the season to Deck the House—and Patch wants to reward those with the best decorated houses in Patchland.

Between Dec. 8 and Dec. 26, residents of Galloway Township are encouraged to post photos and videos of their “decked out” houses to our site as part of a national contest that could net your local school district $100,000.

There will be more than 800 local winners, who will represent their Patch communities in the national contest. Judges will then choose 24 finalists who will get up to $500 toward their December electric bills.

A grand-prize winner will be selected from the finalists and a $100,000 contribution will be made to the local public school district in which the winner lives.

After Terry Dougherty's victory in the Great American Teach-Off last month, that means the Galloway Township School District has the chance to have a very happy holiday season, but they'll need your help.
