Sparkle & Shine - Dec. 15, 2025

The Hamlet of Wallkill will be celebrating the holiday season throughout December.  Residents have started to deck their homes and businesses, front yards and sidewalks so they Sparkle & Shine. There is still time to put up your lights and inflatables to participate in the Sparkle & Shine contest, but all must be completed by December 7. Judging will take place by December 15, 2025.

The contest is open to all residents and businesses in the Town of Shawangunk within the Wallkill area.  The residential categories are Traditional, Creative, Motion, Most Impressive, and Most Dramatic Use of Color. We will also select the businesses with the best decorations and holiday spirit. 

Do your part to make the town bright and beautiful and post your photos on Vision of Wallkill’s Facebook page. (You may include your address if you choose.) Winners will be announced by December 16.

We ask all winners to claim their award certificate and ribbon at a future Town of Shawangunk Board Meeting (tentatively by Jan. 1, 2026). We look forward to seeing you there.
