"HGTV's holiday season spectacular, 'HOLIDAY BATTLE ON THE BLOCK' is coming to Buffalo and looking for young families in Parkside and Allentown who love to deck the outside of their homes for the holidays!
In each of two one hour specials, three young families, with children up to mid teens, are put to the challenge and partake in a friendly festive decorating face-off by the two HGTV hosts.
Each family, working as a team, is provided a healthy budget and asked to design, shop, source, and build something super-special from scratch for the exterior of their home, within 48 hours.
At stake are the bragging rights and the honor of being awarded the title of BEST HOLIDAY HOUSE in front of the local community.
After the sun has set on the final evening, a local panel of judges from the area, along with the HGTV hosts, will hit the switch that has these homes burst forth in season splendor! After careful deliberation, the winner is announced to one and all!
HGTV is looking for:
1.
Outgoing young families with children up to their teen years
2. Who
pride themselves on their annual outdoor festive decor
3. Live
in a detached heritage or heritage style home
4. Available for four days of shooting between December 10-13 or December 15-18.
If your family is up for the challenge and a lot of festive fun, please contact Casting Director, Sue Skinner of SMS Concepts Casting, by November 25th, with an attached family photo and an exterior photo of your house, at smsconcepts@rogers.com (with "Buffalo Rising" in the subject line.) Sue says not to be overwhelmed by the top image, which is obviously over-the-top on decorating!
'HOLIDAY
BATTLE ON THE BLOCK' is
being produced by Cineflix for HGTV US and HGTV Canada.
