Windows at Christmas

It’s time for the Andrews Chamber of Commerce’s annual Christmas Window Decorating Contest. This year’s theme is “Thankful & Blessed.”

Local business owners are invited to decorate their buildings’ front windows for the season. The deadline to decorate is Friday, Nov. 22, so the town will look festive for the annual Christmas on Main Street event.

Judging will take place from Dec. 2-6. Be sure to have your display all lit up on those evenings.
