The Nacogdoches Main Street Office in conjunction with Stephen F. Austin State University held a downtown merchants window-decorating contest this week. We had 7 merchants participate in the “There’s no place like home” themed Homecoming display. SFA students judged the windows on Thursday afternoon in time for the Homecoming Parade on Saturday morning. Participants were asked to meet certain criteria including visibility from the street, and of course including Stephen F. Austin in their endeavors.
This year’s winners are: Red Ruby Slipper Award: Most Spirited CBTx, Glinda Award: Most Glamorous CBH Insurance Agency, Wicked Witch of the West Award :Spookiest House of Traditions, Scarecrow Award: Most Creative Clardy Davis and Knowles Law Firm, and Wizard Of Oz Award: Best Overall Greers. “The students had a tough time deciding the winners, all of the windows were top notch,” said Main Street Manager Sarah O’Brien. “We were so excited to once again join forces with SFA and show our lumberjack support in historic downtown Nacogdoches.”
