This House Could Win $100K for H-H Schools

This Hatboro house is one of the 24 finalists in Patch’s Deck the House contest. Vote now to help this entry win $100,000 for Hatboro-Horsham schools.

Could this be the best “decked” house in the country? Possibly. Congrats to Jamie Morrow of Hatboro for being chosen as one of the 24 finalists in our Deck the House contest. We had tons of national entries in this year’s Deck the House contest and in our quest to find the most over-the-top holiday decorations in the country, we’ve seen everything from a life-size Santa to holiday lights so bright they could blind the neighbors. We loved seeing everyone’s holiday spirit, but Deck the House isn’t over yet. We’re still looking for the one home so spectacularly decorated that it could be the national grand prize winner of our contest—and it could be a home from right here in Hatboro.  Until Dec. 27, vote in our contest to help this entry win…

Voting ends Sunday and Chris and Sharon Fedele's Horsham entry needs lots more votes.

The Hatboro-Horsham School District could win $100,000 in Patch's Deck the House contest - but only if the community votes for Chris and Sharon Fedele's Horsham home.  Voting ends Jan. 8.  The last weekend before Christmas the road leading up to the Fedele’s Horsham home is “usually a parking lot.” Spectators come near and far to take in all of the family’s outdoor lights on their extravagantly decorated home - a residence that’s tops in Patch’s Deck the House contest. In fact, the couple’s home is among the top 24 national finalists, meaning that Hatboro-Horsham School District is in the running for $100,000. “This is the first time being in something like this,” Chris Fedele said. “We looked at it and we thought, ‘we’ll throw our hats in…
