Here's your chance to officially become the Clark Griswold of Pittsfield! Picture Pittsfield volunteers will be touring the city between 5:30-8:30 pm Friday, Dec. 17 and selecting two outdoor holiday decor winners: Business and Residential. Business are office buildings, shops and restaurants. And residential entries are decorated homes, any size and shape. Residences and businesses must be within the Pittsfield city limits. A winner and runner up will be selected in each category for a total of four winners. Entries will be judged on creativity and overall attractiveness.
Categories: Residential (houses, duplexes, apartments) and Business (window or store front /locally and commercially owned).  Each category can win 1st Place and Runner Up.

The things judges will be looking for:
Lights – We are looking for brightness, colors, organization and movement.
Theme – We will be looking for Christmas themes. Think movies, songs, stories,  etc.
Spirit – We are looking for the house or business that encompasses what Christmas is all about.

Residential and businesses will be judged on a scale of 1-5
5 = Beyond Exceptional
4 = Exceptional
3 = Middle of the Road
2 = Best Attempt
1 = Minimalist

Be sure to have all lights and animation on between the hours of 5:30-8:30 pm Friday, Dec. 17.
