The interactive map for Sherbrooke’s “Scintillating Trail” of Christmas decorations is now online. After putting out the call to residents and businesses in the city over the last few weeks, Destination Sherbrooke has compiled a map that will allow people to hit the road and discover the 315 homes, 45 businesses, and 12 public spaces that have been dressed up
MONTREAL Sherbrooke s Scintillating Trail is an annual holiday decoration competition where residents and businesses compete to one-up one another with their shows of lights, animated scenes and music that would make Clark Griswold gush. Participants in the contest deck out their exteriors until Jan. 3, and compete to be crowned festive decorator extraordinaire. There are three categories for residential displays: A sparkling light for those just wanting to make Sherbrooke welcoming ($300 to the winner); Two twinkling lights for those who love Christmas and want to stand out ($500 to the winner); and Three twinkling lights for those wanting to inspire the WOW Christmas effect ($700 to the winner).
