Annual pumpkin, costume contests to be held

Do you want to have a ghouling time dressing up as a monster or designing a pumpkin?  Join MUSC’s Dietary Department in the annual Costume Contest and the 11th annual Great Pumpkin Contest. Both contests will be held in the MUSC cafeteria.
 
The costume contest will begin at 1 p.m on Oct. 31. Participants in the Parade of Costumes will be judged on originality, personality, theme and creativity. The winners will be announced immediately following the parade.  
 
Participants should meet in front of the gift shop no later than 12:45 p.m., in order to receive their assigned numbers and be briefed on the Parade of Costumes.
 
The Great Pumpkin Contest will begin Oct. 30.
 
Participants may pick up their pumpkins in the cafeteria entrance from noon until 2 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 25, and return them by Tuesday, Oct. 29.  
 
The pumpkins will be displayed in the cafeteria until the judging. The announcement of the winners will be at 12:30 p.m.  Participants do not have to be present for the ceremonies.  
 
All displays must be removed by Thursday, Oct. 31.
