Each category will have exciting prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners, and participants have a chance to win awesome prizes such as a Yeti water bottle, an air fryer, a tablet, wireless earbuds, a portable speaker, a back massager, an Osprey daypack, and more!
Voting will be open from Monday, October 21, to Monday, October 28. During this time, be sure to check our social media for a link to vote.
We will announce the winners on Halloween (Thursday, October 31) on social media (Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, Twitter) and on our blog.
Reminders:
- Please remember, all submissions must be family friendly. This means no offensive or inappropriate language and/or themes, or content that may not be suitable for all age groups. We reserve the right to not feature any submissions that we deem inappropriate based on these criteria.
- DP values inclusion and aims to cultivate an environment where everyone feels they belong. We encourage you to respect the cultural identities of others by being mindful of culturally appropriative costumes. All submissions will be reviewed based on our commitment to addressing cultural appropriation. To gain a deeper understanding of why certain costumes may be viewed as cultural appropriation, we invite you to read “Avoiding Cultural Appropriation This Halloween.”
We can’t wait to see your amazing costumes and decorations! If you have any questions or concerns, please email COEvents@DPColo.org. Thank you!
