Christmas Lights Competition Announced

Is your home the brightest home on the block? Do you have the most festive home around? CWP Renewables and GE Renewable Energy (Bango Windfarm) are once again hosting a Christmas Light Up competition in Yass, Boorowa and surrounds and entries are now open.

This year, GE is giving away more than $2,000 worth of prizes, with entries open to all properties within the Yass Valley local government area as well as Boorowa district, including Frogmore, Muringo, Rye Park, and Rugby.

Iain Blair, GE’s Project Manager for Bango Wind Farm, said “This year has been a challenging year for many in our community and it will be exciting to see homes lit up with dazzling displays once again. If you love Christmas and putting up light displays or have been waiting for an excuse to go all out, this is the perfect opportunity.

“Categories include a renewable energy display to encourage people to think about how they can celebrate in an environmentally sustainable manner,” he said.

Bango Wind Farm Community Engagement Officer, Lyn Diskon, added “Many local residents and business owners go to great lengths each year to create uplifting Christmas light displays. It’s always a wonderful experience visiting local neighbourhoods and seeing the joy on people’s faces as they enjoy the displays.

“So, jingle all the way to your store cupboard, pull out your Santas, sleds, reindeer and wreaths. Untangle those lights, pull out the inflatables, and start decorating your homes, businesses, farm gates, whatever can be lit up for Christmas.”

Entry forms are available on the Bango Wind Farm website at https://cwprenewables.com/news/registrations-open-for-2021-christmas-light-up-competition

Entries close on Friday 3rd December, with winners to be announced after judging is completed.

There is no entry fee and only decorations visible from the roadway will be subject to judging which will occur between 13th and 15th December 2021. Participants should ensure that all lights, animations and decorations are in place and activated for the judging nights.
