KVSH Radio hosted the 3rd annual Christmas Light contest Monday evening. This year Heartland Energy from Madison SD helped sponsor the event.

There were two school vans and 14 vehicles that followed the judges van to see the holiday light displays. Union Bank and Trust and Christi Colburn donated homemade Christmas cookies prior to the event.

Eight homes were judged on the number of lights, neatness, ingenuity and overall appeal. The Ashley and Ryan McSweeney home at 803 Green St, was determined the first place winner with 257 points. Second place was Kelly and Tammy Russell at 527 N Hugh Street. McSeeney’s will receive $100 form KVSH and our sponsors and the Russell’s will get $50.

Other Sponsors include: Sandhills Family Dental, Union Bank and Trust, Ron Lower Construction, Stracke Realty, Sandhills State Bank and State Farm Insurance, Talia Benson with Shuster Anderson wealth advisors, Sandhill Oil, Hometown Lumber and Heart City Drug and NK Waste Management.

Thank you to Valentine Community Schools for lending us transportation for the evening.

Merry Christmas from KVSH Radio.
