Deadline to enter holiday lights photo contest is Thursday

DO YOU THINK you have the most amazing holiday light display in town?

Peninsula Daily News is holding an online photo contest to find the best Christmas lights this season.

Submit a photo of your home lit up for the holidays.

We’re looking for homes lined with lights, yards decked out with decorations, displays of Santa and his reindeer — whatever you’ve done to be festive this year.

The contest is free to enter and open to residents of Clallam and Jefferson counties.

To enter, go to http://pdn.upickem.net/engine/Welcome.aspx?contestid=44434 .

Click on the “Submission” tab and follow the instructions for registering and submitting your photo.

Please give the address of where the display is located so people can also see it in person.

All entries must be submitted on the web — sorry, no entries by mail, or in person. You also must submit the entry yourself (no emailing photos and asking us to post them.)

You can enter today through noon Thursday, Dec. 15. (That’s this Thursday.)

To view entries as they are posted, click the “View Entries” tab on the contest site.

Winners will be chosen by the public in online voting from Dec. 15 through Sunday, Dec. 25.

Voting is also free. You must be registered on the contest site to vote.

You can vote up to five times per day during the voting period.

In addition to the bragging rights that come with getting voted “best,” there are also prizes to be won!

The six entries that receive the most online votes will win prizes courtesy of the contest’s sponsors — Port Book and News, Lower Elwha Klallam tribe, Elwha River Casino, Olympic Iyengar Yoga, Pacific Rim Hobby and Nails by Sara.

Questions or problems posting a photo?

Phone Josh Winters for technical support at 360-417-7688 (there’s voice mail 24/7), or send a detailed email to susan.stoneman@peninsuladailynews.com.
