Tis the season for Millcreek residents to deck out their homes and register for the Township’s 5th annual contest. Please make this a yearly tradition, so beautiful homes don’t go un-awarded simply because the application wasn’t completed. It’s definitely worth a try to enter because
winners will have a photo of their home in the Newsletter, receive a beautiful plaque and a year’s worth of bragging rights. The judging will take place at the end of November and awards presented in the beginning of December. One winner will be chosen from each community; Millcreek,
East Mill Creek, Canyon Rim and Mt. Olympus. All Millcreek Township community members, and out-of-town admirers, will be able to ride through the neighborhoods and make their yearly festivities even better. Local decorators, expert or rookies, are invited to make the decorations and contest a part of their holiday season. Please join in this annual tradition where all can enjoy presenting or admiring beautiful holiday displays. All interested residents can apply for the contest at www.millcreektownship. org by November 30th and be part of what makes Millcreek Township unique – another quality tradition.
While decorating your home don't forget about pet safety. . . .
Considering decorating the tree with bows or strands of popcorn, ribbon or garland. Avoid shiny strands of tinsel that can be tantalizing to cats, but also dangerous.
Anchor the tree so it doesn't tip and fall over, injuring your pet. This will also prevent the tree water which may contain poisonous fertilizers, from spilling. Also keep wires, batteries and ornaments out of paws' reach so pets don't get hurt.
Fresh holly and mistletoe might appear harmless, but when ingested, pets can suffer nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Instead choose colorful, artificial plants made from silk or plastic.
Don't leave lighted candles unattended. Pets can accidentally burn themselves or cause a fire if they knock candles over. Pleace candles in appropriate holders on a stable surface, and extinguish them when exising the room.
Have a safe and happy holiday season. . . .
