So what's this all about?

Pulaski County Light Fight is a local holiday decoration competition started by DAK Lights in Pulaski County, Virginia. Each November/December, we encourage individuals, families, organizations, churches, and businesses to decorate and spread holiday cheer. As a bonus, anyone may submit their holiday decorations for judging to win a locally-sourced prize and, of course, yearly bragging rights for the best holiday decorations in Pulaski County!

We'll also consolidate a list of submissions into the annual "Light Fight Map" which shows the locations of all the festive displays around Pulaski County and helps get you into the holiday spirit!

Exact schedules and deadlines vary, so be sure to review the schedule and rules for this year's information.
