Here it is Mayfair - The moment that you've all been waiting for!
The 2016 Mayfair Christmas Decoration Contest was an unbelievable success with over 140 entries this year. What was really cool to see this year was how neighbors "upped their game" because of this Contest and added even more lights and decorations to their homes, and how many NEW entries that we had this year. It was all VERY cool to see and every year Mayfair continues to shine a little brighter!
I'm so glad that we decided to split the Contest up into 3 Categories this year and added a separate Row Home Category. Several Row Homes owners really do go all out decorating their homes however they only have so much room to work with. Giving them their own Category was the right thing to do, and it was a huge success!
The competition was once again extremely fierce which made judging the nominations very difficult. We don't do a "1st, 2nd or 3rd" in the Contest, we simply award the Top 3 in each Category.
With that being said, here are the WINNERS of the Mayfair Civic Association's

This contest has been a huge success for Mayfair!
It started out only four years ago, but it has already become a family tradition for many. If you haven't done so already, take a moment to check out our Google Map with all of the entries in the Contest, grab the family, and take a ride around Mayfair - It really is beautiful!
There are several people to thank starting with the reporters and their editors who covered our Contest, especially Bill Kenny and Tom Waring of the Northeast Times, the Mayfair Business Association Members who donated the prizes, Luka of the Mayfair CDC for creating our beautiful lawn signs printed by Aztec Signs, our 12 Judges who spent a countless amount of hours driving around Mayfair and scoring the 140+ entries, The Ashburner Inn for driving our Judges around in their bus, but most importantly, I'd like to thank the neighbors in Mayfair who went above and beyond this year while decorating their homes.
Without you, this contest would not exist!
Working together as a community, we have proven that Mayfair is indeed, A Great Place to Visit, and an Awesome Place to Live!
Merry Christmas Mayfair!
