Ok we know it’s not even October but you know that Halloween decorations are already in the store and soon after that, December holiday stuff will be up. So we feel compelled to point out that the Concord’s Colonial Inn Annual Gingerbread House Display is returning this December, and this year’s theme celebrates America’s 250th Anniversary! They are inviting local businesses and organizations to build their own one-of-a-kind gingerbread house and become part of the holiday Gingerbread House Village. Gingerbread houses will be displayed throughout the holiday season, where guests and visitors can admire the creativity and vote for their favorite! We also feel compelled to point out that our VisitConcord display won 🏆 third prize with our recent entry which was a confectionary display of our actual building at 58 Main St, (come and see if the gingerbread version and the real version match up.) Sweet!
Ready to join the display? Contact Kathy Green or Anthony Scott at Concord’s Colonial Inn for more information. @concordscolonialinn #concordholiday #concordholidays #whatsonconcord #concordlove
