Congratulations to the Larson family whose lights display at the corner of Wayside and Willow Ridge won the Brookwood HOA-sponsored contest for 2018. They will receive a gift certificate for $50 at the Valley Smoke Restaurant for their efforts.

Featuring Santa feeding his hungry reindeer, the Larsens also took the prize two years ago. There appears to be a rivalry with their neighbors, the Hoepners, who won the contest last year.

Thank you to all property owners who participated and made the community look bright for the holiday season. Thanks also go to property manager Jeff Edwards, who made a special trip to judge the contest.

We also appreciate the efforts of Denise Spain and Patty Lurz Shlafer for decorating both of the entrances for the community.

The community is starting to sparkle for the season and you have three more weekends to start decorating or enhance your display for a chance to win a $50 gift certificate to the Valley Smoke Restaurant at 11 South Roscoe Blvd.The contest, sponsored by the Brookwood HOA, will be judged the evening of Wednesday, December 19, by Jeff Edwards, our property manager at First Coast. Make sure your lights are turned on by 6:30pm. Our judge will be looking for creativity, color schemes, amount of lights, coordination of displays, overall appearance, animation and originality.

The winning homeowner will be announced by a news post on the HOA website the following day. Let’s make this a competition where we all have fun and make our neighborhood shine in the process!

Congratulations to the Larson family on the corner of Wayside Lane who won the Brookwood Holiday Lights Contest. Contest judge Matt Ciupak, property manager at BCM Services, had a tough job as many families answered the call to light up our community.

Carl and Tierney Larson were awarded a $50 gift certificate to Nona Blue, a new restaurant in Ponte Vedra Beach. Tierney was quick to give her husband all the credit for hanging up the decorations. Thanks to all who participated and to Matt for judging.
