“Montgomery Recreation is proud to announce the winners of our first annual Holiday Lights Spectacular!  We had so many great participants, it made it a VERY tough decision for our judges to pick one winner in each of our 3 categories: Most Original Display, Most Classic Display and Most Unique Display.  Thank you also to the more than 140 residents who voted in our “Fan Favorite” category!! 

We would also like to thank everyone who entered our Holiday Light Contest!
Congratulations to all of the winners, and we can’t wait to see your displays next year!

Happy Holidays from the Montgomery Recreation Department!”
