Snowman Decorating Contest

Help populate our Snowman Village with a snowman you design and decorate! We have 4' wooden snowmen boards cut out and painted white, ready for you to bring to life! Each snowman is $30 and proceeds go to next year's Tree Lighting event. They can be picked up at KKeegan Realty - 290 Center St., Pembroke.

​Contest

Completed snowmen can be dropped off at the Pembroke Community Center (128 Center Street) on Friday, December 6th between 9am and 4pm or on Saturday, December 7th between 10:30am and 11:30am. ALL Snowmen must be to Pembroke Community Center no later 11:30am on December 7th for installation. A committee of 3will be judging entries. Winners will be announced on Facebook.

Snowmen will be installed the day of the tree lighting and removed on December 31st. Please plan to pick yours up around the 31st!

Tips, Tricks and Family-Friendly Rules

  • Decorate just one side. The snowmen are displayed at the Tree Lighting event by securing them from the back to a stake using heavy-duty screws. Anything on the back of the snowman may have to be screwed through. Clothing and paint can be on the back, but anything that crosses the mid-line (like arms) makes staking difficult.

  • Acrylic paint with a sealer top coat works best in the elements. (In our experience, spray sealer works better than the brushed.)

  • Avoid using paper, if you can.

  • Avoid duct tape or any kind of tape when adhering decorations. We had good results with 6,000 Glue (available at Michaels, Ace Hardware, etc.)

PLEASE NOTE!

  • No refunds. Once you purchase a snowman, that snowman is yours whether you enter it into the contest or not.

  • No political or provocative decorations please. The committee reserves the right to not display a snowman.

  • Please keep the decorations light, happy, family friendly, and in the spirit of the event.

Most importantly, HAVE FUN! We can’t wait to see your creations and we look forward to building our Snowman Village!
