Once again, Chelsea‘s Halloween costume judging will be at the Cole Funeral Chapel parking lot.
Cider and donuts will be provided, and in addition, there will be a Jack-o-lantern contest this year.
Judging will take place before the official start of trick-or-treating and the games, so the costumes will be fresh and while it is still light out so the judges can see the costumes and we can get great pictures.
Participants will be asked to go their age-group area for judging starting at 5:30, and we hope to announce winners and take photos starting at 5:45 p.m.
For the costume judging, the categories will be 5 years and under, 6-8, 9-12, 13-18, and groups. In each category, first and second place will be chosen for both best costume and most original. All contestants will receive a participation ribbon.
For the Jack-O-Lantern contest (pumpkin carving), please bring your completed pumpkin to the funeral home parking lot by 5:30 p.m. and it must stay on display until 6:30 p.m. There will not be age groups for the pumpkins – children, teens, adults, and families are welcome to enter their pumpkin. Carved or painted pumpkins are acceptable.
First place will receive a $30 cash prize, second prize will receive $20, and third prize will receive $10. All participants will receive a ribbon.
If you have any questions, please contact Allen at the Cole Funeral Chapel, 475-1551.
