contest

Being the site was closed for a spell, I don't remeber all the rules right off hand, but I'll do my best and make changes as I see fit.

This Contest is something I started a few years back. When Jack-O-Patterns started people would email me pictures of their carvings. I enjoyed getting the pictures so much, I thought having a contest would be fun, and I'd be able to see more carvings. I experimented with different prizes, from free memberships to custom carved foam pumpkins. The prizes were congratulatory for a job well done. This time will not be any different. However, being that this is my first year back I'm not having the different categories, like in the past. I've decided to keep it simple. This time around their will be:
2-third place winners,
2-second place winners,
2-first place winners,
1-Grand Champion winner.

OK, here are some rules, and you might want to check back from time to time to see if any changes have been made.

1) You can enter as often as you like, but you'll only win one prize. I'm not going to have one person win multiple prizes.
2) Your entry must be post marked no later then November 15th.
3) Send only one picture of each carving you enter. So take lots of pictures and pick the best one.
4) For postal mailed entries, use the entry form below, and PRINT the information.
5) For emailed entries, please send the same information that the mail in entry form asks for.
6) The judging is done by me, my friend Robert, my wife Jennifer, and my three kids, and the ruling of the judges is final.
