list of non-winners:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-If your neighborhood monument is in Des Moines, Iowa, you didn\u2019t win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-If your neighborhood monument wasn\u2019t decorated, you didn\u2019t win (helping others doesn\u2019t count).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-If you didn\u2019t win, you didn\u2019t win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Okay, so who the heck won?&nbsp; Ah, first the side story.&nbsp; A team of judges made their rounds the first weekend of December 2024, taking in the beauty and creativity of all 12 neighborhoods that decorated their monuments.&nbsp; Some displays were quite elaborate, some were aesthetically unbusy, and some were in between.&nbsp; But all were admirably creative.&nbsp; Rumor has it that the judging was so challenging that the stress of deciding on the winner pushed one of the judges to announce retirement from future events.&nbsp; Not really, but the decorations were that good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped

Rhodes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now for the winner!&nbsp; After much deliberation, the team of judges decided on Balmoral as being 2024\u2019s winner of the Best Holiday Decorated Neighborhood.&nbsp; The ringleader of Balmoral\u2019s monument decorators, Lynne Shineman explained that she and her team created a new design for 2024, going all out with their decorations that included pink flamingos wearing Santa hats.&nbsp; One idea sparked another among the team of creators, a team that includes Ray Piergiorgi, Cheri Stark, Ellen Attenson, Lynn Ihlenburg, Rosemary Rhodes and Addie, the canine helper.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Upon completion of their creation, the team celebrated with a \u201cLight Up Balmoral\u201d gala that appropriately began with the connecting of two extension cords.&nbsp; Presto!&nbsp; A winner is born.&nbsp; Bragging rights for 2025!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, what\u2019s up for next year\u2019s d\u00e9cor?&nbsp; Lynne told me that it will be sure to at least equal this year\u2019s monument, and flat out said no when I asked if residents might be performing ballet on top of the monument.&nbsp; Just throwin\u2019 out some ideas.&nbsp; Don\u2019t even think about it!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Congratulations and thanks to all the artistic participants of this year\u2019s event.&nbsp; Perhaps this competition will be an inviting challenge for more neighborhoods next year.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Author: Dave DeAngelis, World News
