Elizabeth City's Downtown Business & Professionals Assn. is doing activities all this week for the holiday season and they're calling it Holidays on the Harbor. Part of that they are doing something called
Find The GINGER BREAD MEN, where certain downtown businesses have a gingerbread man somewhere in their store and throughout the week locals and visitors can go around, try to find these gingerbread men, once they find them get their forms stamped ... then turn their forms in at Page After Page Bookstore ... then tomorrow (December 12th) at the Holidays on the Harbor event in Mariners Wharf park (
click here for more info) they'll announce the winners for this along with other activities they're planning on having there. Anyway ... those same businesses (well most not all) are participating in a business holiday decorating contest (about 14 businesses). And I was asked to be one of the judges. So, today after work I went around and judged which storefront I liked the best. And I have taken photos of my top 3 ... plus some others ... but here are my top three:
#1 - My Winner - Selig's Jewelers
#2 - Firefly
#3 - Page After Page Bookstore
The official winners will be announced tomorrow ... but I just wanted to share! =0) I hope everyone's holiday shopping is going good. I have barely even started mine. =0/ I guess I should start this weekend. *hahaa*

Once your in the North Carolina section ... the photos are in the category: Elizabeth City, and under the sub-category: Annual Events.
