RALEIGH, NC, March 12, 2011 (Press-News.org) Hick's Landscape Contractors, an innovative landscaping contractor of the Triangle, is proud to announce their $10,000 Yard Makeover Contest. One lucky yard located in Wake County, North Carolina will receive a $10,000 ultimate yard makeover.

On March 26th, Hick's will choose their top 5 most deserving, ugly yards and their loyal Facebook fans will then vote from these yards which one they think needs the most help.
On April 1st, the yard that the Facebook fans vote for will be announced, and on April 11th, the winner will receive a $10,000 Yard Makeover from the landscaping professionals of Hicks Landscaping, transforming their lawn from a disaster area to the envy of the neighborhood.

We would like to thank all of our local sponsors for providing the resources to make this first-ever contest possible."
