*Look for the sticker in the bottom center of each picture for more details. A "Spooky" sticker means the home is spooky and could be scary. A "Boo-rific" sticker means a home is whimsical and light-hearted.
Thank you again, Portage! We are looking forward to the next year as we continue to grow and evolve the contest.
