The seventh annual Twinkle Tour was held in North Battleford throughout early December.

Twenty-five people entered the Christmas decoration contest and four awards were up for grabs, including Best House, Best Block, Best Business, and People’s Choice.

The People’s Choice Award went to ‘Gnome for Christmas’, submitted by Colette of North Battleford. The display included various Gnomes, string lights from the roof to the edge of the yard and a life size gingerbread house among other factors.
