This year’s Great Pumpkin<br />

Contest wrapped up<br />

Oct. 31, but the submissions<br />

continue to amaze<br />

even after Halloween<br />

ended.<br />

We received a few submissions<br />

this year, which<br />

made the competition incredible<br />

tough. It was an<br />

extremely difficult decision,<br />

but The Landmark’s<br />

winning pumpkin carving<br />

this year goes to Marc Nathan<br />

and his two daughters.<br />

The Nathan family<br />

were feeling creative, and<br />

submitted two entries,<br />

but their winning entry<br />

is pumpkin Pac-Man<br />

chasing three pumpkin<br />

ghosts.<br />

The family also won the<br />

contest last year.<br />

“My daughters and I<br />

would really like to defend<br />

last years championship,”<br />

Marc Nathan said.<br />

The family has won a<br />

gift certificate to Goodies,<br />

Etc. located at 652 Central<br />

Ave. in Highland Park.<br />

The Landmark would<br />

The Nathan family’s winning pumpkin was Pac-Man<br />

chasing ghost pumpkins. Photos submitted<br />

The Nathan family also submitted this creative pumpkin,<br />

placed on top of a lamp, with holes carved into it so<br />

it shoots out light throughout the room.<br />

like to sincerely thank everyone<br />

who submitted an<br />

entry to this year’s contest,<br />

and would also like<br />

to thank Goodies, Etc. for<br />

their donation.<br />
