The holiday elves are dressing up the town for the season, and many businesses will be participating in the 12th annual Sisters Habitat for Humanity Gingerbread Trail. Businesses will display a gingerbread house made by their employees or supporters. Spectators can vote for their favorite by placing money in the Habitat donation box next to the confectionary work of art. Everyone is encouraged to vote for more than one house.

The creations will be on display beginning Friday, November 29 until Thursday, January 2, 2020. Maps of the gingerbread trail are located at the Sisters Area Chamber of Commerce, Sisters Habitat Thrift Store and ReStore, as well as all participating businesses.

The gingerbread creation that receives the highest dollar amount will win the People’s Choice Award. A Best in Show Award will be decided by three independent judges. These awards will be announced in January. All proceeds benefit the building program of Sisters Habitat for Humanity.

Sisters Habitat for Humanity offers low-cost homes and home-improvement services to those who qualify in Sisters.
