To jump start the holiday celebration, BKC launched its First Annual Door Decorating Competition. Spearheaded by Laura Kuehler, the event generated much excitement among the partners and staff to the extent that some spent sleepless nights thinking of concepts and designs that are unique but expressive enough to win. Some did not make up their minds until the very last minute (which explains why Mark and Sharon put up their decorations at the 11th hour). Others even analyzed the tendencies, inclinations, and backgrounds of would-be judges and adapted their presentations accordingly. From all of these emerged artistic pieces like "The Green Foil" (Rafael taking a cue from the Movado museum watch concept), "The Tax Door" (Pancho's), "The Singing Christmas Tree" (Ashley's), "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" (Mike's), "Kiddie Christmas" (Michel's), "Santa Came To Town" (Mark's) and "The Tree" (Sharon's) just to name a few.

Aside from bagging a prize, the winner will be forever known as the first BKC door decorating competition champion.

Balloting begins on December 9 and ends on December 10. The winner will be announced at the holiday party on December 11.
