Niwot Tavern's Grinch steals the show

The results for the Enchanted Evening Window Decorating Contest are in! There were about 150 votes total, and while the competition was amazing and colorful, the clear winner for the 2018 season is Niwot Tavern. This is the second year in a row that the Tavern has swept the votes, and they credit their amazing wins to their window designer and decorator, Tom Studholme, who can be contacted at 970-619-9456 for people who wish to use his skills for their holiday window displays.

The second place winner was Colorado Landmark Realtors in Old Town with a charming display for families of a miniature town of Niwot. They encourage children to find as many Santas in the display as they can. Can you count the Santas in the photo of the display?

Third place was the Deb Fowler DRF Team Real Estate in Old Town with a display of homemade ornaments and photos of what makes living in Niwot so special. They also have a mailbox for Letters to Santa.

All three businesses received a plaque to hang in the window, a ribbon, and, most importantly, bragging rights!

The plaque was sponsored by Left Hand Animal Hospital, and built out of recycled Colorado beetle kill pine by All-sports Trophies in Fort Collins.

Please go out and enjoy the window displays!
