At least six houses are needed to participate in the contest. Get the Christmas decorations out of the attic, untangle all those Christmas lights and register to participate in the contest by Friday, November 3.
The first ten people to register will go head-to-head in a competition to determine who has the biggest, brightest and best Christmas light display in Columbia County.
A crew will come to your house at a pre-arranged time to capture a video of you flipping the switch on your holiday light display that will be available for viewing on the Columbia County, GA-GovernmentColumbia County, GA-Government Facebook page. In addition, all participating houses will be listed on Columbia County’s Christmas Light map.
The videos will be published to Facebook Thursday, December 4 and voting will be open for two weeks before three finalists are announced. The winner of the Christmas Light Fight will be announced on Wednesday, December 20 and will receive a winter surprise package.
To participate in the contest, send an email to publicrelations@columbiacountyga.gov. by November 3.
The inaugural Christmas Light Fight was held in 2021 with the James Smith family winning top honors. The display featured more than 65,000 lights, inflatables and music. Smith said neighbors even joined in setting up the holiday display.

After a long day, you usually just want to go home, put on some comfy clothes, kick up your feet, and get into relaxation mode. Whether you’re dating, married, married with children or maybe have a roommate, sometimes you just need some space. And when that’s what the doctor orders, there’s no other place better than your own bedroom.
If you do in fact live with other people in your house, then you know retreating to your own space is a must on those hard days. The kitchen, the living room, the basement, those spaces are used by everyone you share your home with, and let’s be honest they tend to sometimes be a little bit cluttered and not as relaxing as your bedroom.
The items on this list are gadgets for your bedroom, that will help make sure that when you’re in your own space you have all the comforts you’ll need, and will keep the leaving to a bare minimum.
Your room should be a sanctuary, with all the necessary comforts, and conveniences. Why get up to turn the lights on when you could use a remote? Why would you go to the kitchen to grab a drink when you can have a mini fridge next to the bed?
Treat yourself to some of these gadgets for your bedroom. Or you might find a gift for a friend or loved one on the list too! The holidays are just right around the corner.
