The Gingerbread Houses will be judged in 4 categories by the visitors of Chain of Lights who stop at the Sutton Elementary School & Simonian Center for Early Learning. (Child/Family/Adult/Organization)

Build and Decorate Your Own Gingerbread House:

We are offering our “Gingerbread House” kits. Inside is everything you need to build your house (gingerbread house parts, icing, candy and other goodies). The price is $10/kit at the event which includes assistance from our elves in building the house. Pre- register to ensure we reserve you a kit.

We are also taking pre-orders for those who wish to enter the contest or to build at home on your time. These also make great gifts! Pre-orders will be available for pick-up at the ELC/Simonian Center the week of Thanksgiving, or at my house. We are hoping to have the best contest yet as such organizations and groups will receive a quantity discount. The price is $10/kit for pre-orders.

*** In the spirit of giving, 100% of all proceeds will be donated to the local Sutton Community. This year’s donations will be to Sutton families dealing with Cancer.
