Mike Valdrow, owner of Mike's Porta Potties and the contest sponsor, approaches his job as judge with all the gravity and dignity it deserves.
The Patterson family of Canby dominated this year's competition, accounting for half of all the entries submitted, and taking first place in both the adult and junior gingerbread outhouse divisions.
Ethan Patterson, 12, chose a tasteful name for his entry, which in this contest, may have cost him the junior division championship.
That honor went to his 14-year-old sister, Paige Patterson.
