Decorating for the holidays?
The Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce has a prize for that – four big prizes, in fact. The awards for 2020 have been doubled: $400 for 1st place, $300 for 2nd place, $150 for 3rd place, and $150 for Mayor's Choice.
The chamber sponsors a residential holiday lighting contest to help spread Blaze of Lights spirit throughout the village. It is funded by the generous donations of chamber member businesses.

President Trump is trying to steal the election.
