September 11, 2020) Coming this October, the City will be hosting two month-long, frightfully fun contests to
get everyone in the Halloween spirit!
Take
part in one or both, and either go solo or make it a family affair but be sure
to capture the end result on your camera and submit it to the City for a chance
to win a Target gift card!
Costume
Contest
No
one is left out of this fun contest that involves dressing up yourself, your
children, and your pets in their Halloween finest. Costumes can be store-bought
or homemade, cute, scary or funny, and either individual or coordinated.
The
five contest categories are Best Kid’s costume (12 years or younger), Best
Teen’s costume (13 to 17 years of age), Best Adult’s costume (18 years or
older), Best Family/Group costume (two or more participants), and Best Pet’s
costume (all animals welcomed).
Pumpkin
Decorating Contest
Pick
a pumpkin and the decorating tools, supplies or materials of your choice to
join in on this seasonal favorite activity! Carving is optional which makes it
a fun and safe activity for family members of all ages. Examples of items you
can use to decorate your pumpkin are carving tools, chalk paint and stencils,
paint, glue and cutouts, and stickers.
The
three contest categories are Best Kid’s pumpkin (12 years or younger), Best
Teen’s pumpkin (13 to 17 years of age), Best Adult’s pumpkin (18 years or
older).
Both
contests are open to only Diamond Bar residents, and only one entry per
participant is allowed.
Photo
entries for both the Costume Contest and the Pumpkin Decorating Contest will be
accepted by email to recreation@diamondbarca.gov between October 1 and November
1 and must be accompanied by a completed entry form, which is available for
download on the City website at www.diamondbarca.gov/specialevents.
One
winner will be selected in each category, and the winners will each receive a
$25 Target gift card.
