I guess a November opening was slightly over optimistic….

Hello, I am a local student at F.AVE. I am doing a project on the historical values of my hometown, Decatur GA. I was wondering if somebody could possible tell me an email for the city commissioners office so I could do some research. I am also going to be relating my findings to what we are learning about; the three branches of government. Even if you have another idea for me that would be great! Thank You!

Sounds like a great event! I am shopping around for home security systems, so any additional info would always be of help.

I agree with you Ann. The judges are probably the same one’s that oversee the crappy decoration’s in Downtown Decatur. Our tax dollar’s at waste again

[...] Decatur residents and businesses were adorned in a wide variety of decorating styles in this year’s Decorate Decatur contest, including everything from classic white lights and greenery to vintage Santa cut-outs and inflatable snowmen. There is even a huge, candlelit menorah with the Toy Story dinosaur and pig. See more pictures at http://thedecaturminute.wordpress.com/ [...]

I don’t envy the judges’ task, there were a lot of great decorations in Decatur this year. It’s always interesting to see what catches their fancy. Like Ann, I also try to do something a little different. Sometimes the judges notice, sometimes not. My neighbors always notice, though, so it’s worth the effort for me.
I’ve enjoyed in the past when neighborhoods who went all out were recognized. We didn’t rally the troops on Adair Street this year, but we’ll come back strong in 2013!

Ann, Thanks for writing in and letting us know of your frustration. We use different judges each year and it is a difficult decision for them every time. I always love riding by your house because it always looks great – I still remember the fabulous lighted bicycle you had up one time. I hope you will continue to decorate in spite of the fact that the judges made other choices this year. Linda H.

I am disappointed that the people who judged the decorating ignored 403 South McDonough Street. It doesn’t take a lot to put lights and blowup decorations all over a yard. I tried to do something different – peaceful and calm but I guess Decatur isn’t ready for that. I will taken my reindeer and stars elsewhere. Ann J. Herrera.
