City of Atlantis, Florida – 2018 Holiday Season Events
One of the things we love the most about the City of Atlantis, Florida (where we live, work, and play!) is the sense of community. And it’s rarely more evident than around the December holidays! Here’s a run-down of the best events:
The City of Atlantis 10th Annual Holiday Homes Decorating Contest is almost here!
(Now through December 9, 2018)
Between Thanksgiving and the December 9 event, many of our neighbors have decided to go “all out” in decorating their homes for the contest – and it’s pretty spectacular!
Judges are ready to vote and awards will be given out following our City of Atlantis Golf Cart Parade. (More on that in the next section!)
… Speaking of The City of Atlantis Golf Cart Parade – I am super-excited to announce that my son Dillon and I were asked to serve as judges this year!… (so be nice to us! 😉 We are excited to participate and look forward to awarding the top golf carts for their decorating and creativity skills! (We will add photos to this post after the event, too!)
