HOUSE DECORATING CONTEST RULES
& REGISTRATION
2021 brings the 2nd Annual House Decorating Contest
and once again the Parade stands still.
Instead of coming to Rutland’s Parade, let the Parade come to you.
Rutland is... a Tea Dumping, Rabble Rousing, Midnight Riding,
Declaration Signing, Independence Day Signing … kind of town.
This is the description of our 2021 theme. Shine a light on America's historical moments that led up to or reflect our Independence. Show us your spirit Rutland! Show your true American colors.
Like true patriots we will rally! What type of Red, White & Blue resides at your address?
