1st. Tied for First The Drummonds are a force to contend with each year, with the patriotic spray paint and well placed door banners, and tree lanterns nabbing them a tie for first place with their beautiful property.
Celia Family 10 Eldridge Ave
1st. Tied for First The Celia Family do a great job of matching their decorations to their home and the aesthetic reminded us of a house in an earlier time in our country. Great job Celia Family!

Proud Neighbors House Tour & Porch Brunch has been postponed until the Sunday AFTER Mother’s Day , May 16, 2021. The Proud Neighbors of Collingswood extends our wishes for your safety and good health.
The Proud Neighbors of Collingswood Porch Brunch and House Tour showcases the charm of our homes and tranquil gardens. Brunch offers culinary delights on vintage porches in May on the sunday after Mother’s Day. The event is a tribute to our historic architecture and neighborhood restoration during National Historic Preservation Month. The Porch Brunch and House Tour will be held on Sunday, May 17, 2020. Consider showing your house or garden. Planning requires that participating homes and gardens must be secured well in advance so please reach out to us if you are (or someone you know might be) interested! Homes on the tour reflect a variety of housing styles, architecture, and neighborhood locations. Some homes feature historic architectural characteristics, while others have a decorator’s flair or a cozy, colorful ambiance. If you have a front porch, consider hosting brunch. We provide all the food, supplies, and staff. Proud Neighbors volunteers will staff your home or garden and many of our members have shown their homes on the tour. Even if you are just a little curious, we can put you in touch with others that have participated so that they can describe the experience. Info@ProudNeighborsOfCollingswood.org
Proud Neighbors of Collingswood, a 501(c)(3) tax exempt public charity, promotes historic preservation awareness by sharing ideas about restoration and strives to maintain the historic character of Collingswood.

Ukee Washington and Jessica Kartalija came to Collingswood with CBS and spoke with Lois Stick, the coordinator of the 4th of July House Decorating Contest and Mark Drummond, last years winner.
“Proud Neighbors of Collingswood has made this contest a tradition. Lois Stick is one of the organizers and loves going house to house every year.
“And they’re so creative. One home, they had their dog decorated,” Lois said.
Coming up, the community’s 4th of July House Decorating Contest. Mark Drummond has a head start. He won a prize last year and is going for two.
