Renaissance Weirton Bakes Up Gingerbread Contest
WEIRTON — Renaissance Weirton is hoping to help the holiday spirit grow as its plans for this year’s Christmas on Main Street come together. In addition to the day-long festivities in front of the Millsop Community Center, the organization is introducing a festive competition.
“Renaissance Weirton Corp. is starting something new,” explained board member Tiffany Gale. “This year, we’re having a gingerbread house contest.”
There are four categories of competition, with contestants divided into Business; Group Effort; Adult (Ages 18 and up); and Youth (ages 10 to 17). The winner of each category will receive a prize package provided through the support of the contest’s sponsors.
“It is free to enter and the prizes are amazing,” Gale said.
Sponsors for the Gingerbread House Contest are Summer’s Enterprise, DeeJay’s BBQ Ribs and Grille, Urban Coffee 304, Gus’s Goodies, Gurrera Law Offices PLLC and Fiesta Tableware Co.
The deadline to enter is Nov. 4. Completed gingerbread houses must be dropped off on Nov. 15, and all entries will be on display at the Millsop Community Center during the Christmas on Main Street event Nov. 19.
