The 2017 Gingerbread House competition saw the greatest number of entrees ever - 43! Judging took place prior to the Christmas Uptown event, and all entries could be seen at the Wabash County Museum. The People’s Choice winner was determined by the dollars placed in containers next to each entry, and over $175 was collected. Those donations will be used by Operation Share for this year’s Christmas phase.
