Special event kicks of the holiday season

(WDAY TV) - It's a special event to kick start the holiday season. It's called Homes for the Holidays. It gives hunters’ wives a fun weekend while the men were gone!

An annual event put on by alumni of Alpha Gamma Delta, a sorority at NDSU. Local merchants fill several area homes with Christmas decorations, each home having a different theme. People pay 15 dollars and then can visit all of the decorated homes.

"It's timed with opening hunting weekend and we're looking for a time where, while we do get men who do come through, it is a lot of women who come through and it's a great weekend to do it for them."

Part of the proceeds will go to Churches United.
