Violet Town lights up for Christmas

Christmas theme home decoration

Residents of Violet Town responded to the call and decorated their homes for the Christmas competition to receive $100 cash for the display judged best.

The winners of the best decorated houses were announced at the Christmas Carols on Monday 18 December 2006. The judges found it difficult to select the best but eventually reduced the competition to a shortlist of four.

Chrissy Anderson of High St received first prize, the $100 donated by the 'Best little Op Shop', with the other prizes going to Joan McFarlane of Dahlia St, Keeley and Haydn Semia and to Di Mackrell.

'Body and Soul' donated $25 as a special prize to Anne Exton for her display in the butcher shop in Cowslip St.
