Show Us Your Holiday Lights!

And while you're at it, enter our holiday lights contest for a chance to win $100,000 for Elmhurst District 205 schools.

Elmhurst is quite colorful this holiday season. A quick drive through town turned up these elaborate displays that are sure to catch Santa's eye from the sky as he makes his rounds.

The north-siders seem to be in competition for the best display. We especially liked the decorations at Howard and Fullerton, where Santa's reindeer and baby Jesus share the lawn, and at Kenilworth and North End, where you'll find "A Christmas Story" playing on the big screen. Those who have time to stop for a few moments can join Santa and Mrs. Claus, who are watching the movie from their car.

Add photos of your decked-out house here or, better yet, enter your photos in our . Elmhurst District 205 schools could win $100,000 and you could win $500 toward your electric bill. The contest runs until Dec. 26.
