“The judging took place on Dec. 18th from 7-9:00.   The winners received a snowflake tree ornament this year.  The 3 Grand Prize winners received a Gorham Silver bell ornament.  We increased this category from 1 to 3 from last year.  Years ago we had 5 or 6 categories & no individual subdivision awards.  They also keep the coveted Elf sign for 2 weeks in their yard.  (the signs are turned back into the MCCA after the first to be used next tear.)  Last years winners were not eligible.  The Judges are past winners & they do not judge their own neighborhood, but get assigned other ones.  The Elf’s had a lot of fun & the winners were very excited.  Do tell.

We appreciate the hardwork, creativity & the gift these families have given our MCCA community. Thank you to the 2013 Elf Judges who were all past recipients of an Elf Award.” — Jac-e & Steve Albertsen
