Pumpkin Decorating Contest Information
- Residents of WCID110 who register to participate will pay $10 entry fee/pumpkin and receive a wooden pumpkin which they can then decorate as they want. There is no theme for the decorating restrictions, so participants can do whatever creative thing they want with their pumpkin.
- All pumpkins will be roughly 24"x24" and made of 1/2" plywood.
- After registering, participants can come to the Forest Oaks Admin Office and pay the $10 entry fee and pick up their wooden pumpkin.
- Restrictions: any power needs for a pumpkin must be battery only. No electricity will be allowed for lighting any decorations. We will not turn on any battery powered components until the day of the Trunk or Treat.
- Pumpkins will come with a pre-drilled hole in the stem so they can be hung in Pavilion 1.
Deadlines
- Pumpkins can be picked up between Monday, September 23 and Wednesday, October 16 from the office after paying the $10 entry fee.
- Decorated pumpkins must be turned in to the Forest Oaks Admin office by Friday, October 18 at noon. There is some wiggle room with this, but we want to put the pumpkins out in the park as decorations the week of October 21 and will need them to prep them to be hung in and around Pavilion 1. Depending on the weather, pumpkins may not be hung until closer to the event.
Judging
- Voting will be done online from Trunk or Treat participants and on our social media pages.
- We will have 5 judges who will also rank pumpkins.
- The "winners" will be decided by a combination of judge's votes and online votes.
Event: Saturday, October 26, 2023 5PM-10PM
