Senske accepting donations for annual Decorated Family event

This holiday season, Senske will once again participate in Decorated Family, which finds 200 families of deployed service men and women across the country and decorates their homes for Christmas. Senske has put on this program each year since 2003.

Decorated Family allows friends and families to nominate a person serving in the military. The nominee’s family will then be eligible to be chosen for professional light installation for the holidays.

“Decorated Family allows us to give back to the community and recognize those who serve in our military branches,” Senske's marketing director Becca Presley says.

With Veteran’s Day just a few weeks away, the company is currently accepting nominations through its Decorated Family page. Each nomination should include a name, phone number, address and email as well as a story explaining the nomination. All nominations are due on Nov. 14 and winners will be chosen on Nov. 16 at 12:00 pm PST.

The Decorated Family program, with help from Christmas Décor, began when a former Senske branch manager attended a holiday dinner party and thought of all the military members serving overseas who wouldn’t be able to celebrate with their loved ones. Senske Lawn & Tree Caris locally owned and operated, with its corporate office based in Kennewick, Washington.
