DYSART – As has become tradition, the Dysart Lions Club sponsored an annual Christmas lights contest. On Dec. 15, 2025, out-of-town judges picked the first, second, and third best displays in Dysart. Judges do the same in the neighboring town of Traer. The first place winner received $50; second place $30; and third place $20.

Congratulations to the following winners!

-First Place: Brandon and Abby Adolphs, 1407 Clark Street. If you visit this house, make sure you also look at the lights in the backyard.

-Second Place: Amanda and David Snyder, 705 Blaine Street.

-Third Place: Robert and Vada Elliott, 611 Tilford Street.
