Gingerbread House Competition This Weekend

The 2nd Annual Boulder City Gingerbread House Competition and Christmas Faire will be held this weekend from November 25th - November 27th at the Boulder City Recreation Center (900 Arizona St.).

The contest allows both children and grownups a chance to show their creativity while supporting some charities, including the Boulder City Boys & Girls Club, the Boulder City Senior Center and Family Promise of Las Vegas. This year's theme is "America - Then & Now".

Last year's competition brought out 21 gingerbread house entries, with the winning house of "Noah's Ark" claiming the $500 Grand Prize.

New to this year's event will be live music, more vendors, new categories and food/drink. Hours are Friday (3pm - 9pm), Saturday (10am - 5pm) and Sunday (11am - 4pm).
