The judges of Burnham-On-Sea and Highbridge’s annual Christmas lights competition have issued a call for entries this week as the entry period begins.
The Town Council is encouraging residents to illuminate their homes across the two towns and enter the contest, which will be judged by a group of town councillors.
Cash prizes will be awarded to the best displays in several categories in each town – best individual display (£25, cup and certificate), runner-up individual display (£10 and certificate), best group entry (shared shield and certificates).
There is also a prize for the best business window (£20, cup and certificate) and runner-up business (£10, cup and certificate).
Only those properties which have been specifically entered the competition will be judged. To enter, email the Town Council at Townclerk@burnham-highbridge.org by 5pm on 16th December or write to Burnham & Highbridge Town Council, The Old Courthouse, Jaycroft Road, Burnham, TA8 1LE. Cups and shields for the winners will be engraved and held for a year.
