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 />
