CAPTION: The Onaway Area Chamber of Commerce reminded all area business establishments that the judging of the Christmas decoration contest was fast approaching. The deadline was Dec. 2, 1977. The object of the contest was to make Onaway sparkle with more than snow. In other Onaway News, Thanksgiving 1977 found the area covered with almost a foot a snow. Skiers rejoiced that 13 ski lodges around the state were able to expand their operations for the holiday weekend. Willard Schaedig of the Presque Isle County Road Commission said it was an expensive weekend. Snow accumulated to 11-15 inch depths around the county.
