Patriotic Porches Contest Set in Bremen

The Bremen Community Cares and Main Street organization is encouraging Bremen residents to show their American spirit in a porch decorating contest at the beginning of July.

Residents can decorate their porches with the best red, white and blue decorations in order to win Bremen bucks. 

To enter the contest, residents living inside the corporate town limits can send a private message to the Bremen Community Cares Main Street Facebook page or email bremencommunitycaresmainstreet@gmail.com.  All of the contestants will be entered into the contest where the community will vote on the best decorations. Once all of the contestants are entered, a map with all of the locations of the decorated porches will be available for voting purposes. 

The décor, which can include lights or porch lamps, must be in place beginning July 1 through July 5.  Officials ask that the decorations not be of a political nature. 

Voters can private message their favorite décor through the Bremen Community Cares Main Street Facebook page or email the vote.  The winner will be announced sometime following the conclusion of the contest.

The first place winner will receive $100 in Bremen bucks, the second place winner will get $75 in Bremen bucks and the third place winner will receive $50 Bremen bucks.
