The Fairfield Civic Association (FCA) is excited to announce the First Annual Fairfield Holiday Decorating Contest! This friendly competition is designed to give some special recognition to neighbors whose outdoor decorating skills bring us all great joy over the month of December. The contest (viewing) period begins December 1, 2025, and continues through January 1, 2026. An initial round of judging will conclude on December 27, 2025, with winners notified shortly thereafter. First, second, and third place prizes will be awarded to the most festive displays in each of the 10 FCA areas (see map at fairfieldnewark.com/about/area-map-reps). An overall winner will emerge from the list of block favorites, with the judges' pick for first place and two runners-up being notified on December 31, 2025. No need to register, just decorate! Please feel free to address any questions to Mary Schorse (mlschorse@gmail.com) or Jerry Kauffman (jerryk@udel.edu).
