Patch’s Little Pumpkin Costume Challenge is Now Closed

Which kid in America has in the pumpkin patch?

That's what we intend to find out with your photos and the help of celebrity judge Heidi Klum, who will select the grand prize winner.

The grand prize?

Patch will whisk the winner to New York or Los Angeles for a two-day, three-night trip for two that includes a meet and greet with Heidi, plus a donation of $1,031 to a local charity of the winner's choice. Nine runners up will also get a $1,031 donation from Patch to a local charity of their choice.

Entering is easy. Just upload a photo of your child, 12 years of age or younger, in his or her Halloween costume. Entries must be made by the parent or legal guardian (age 18 or older) of the child photographed.

Photos should be uploaded to this page with child’s name, entrant’s name, and local charity of choice, which can be added after the photo is uploaded by clicking “edit photo,” and filling in the caption field.

Dormont-Brookline Patch staff will pick one winner, who will then compete against 870 other local Patch winners. Heidi Klum will ultimately pick one grand-prize winner.

Submissions must be received before 9 p.m. on Halloween night, Oct. 31.

Good luck and be sure to support Heidi Klum’s efforts to feed the hungry. Visit Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF!
