Costume Contest

Register for our second annual costume contest! Open to children in the Elementary and Middle Schools, and their friends and family (in the Boo Crew and Stop Calling it Vintage Categories Only). Below, find the categories, requirements, and judging criteria. We will have prizes for the top scorers, and adorable little trophies!

Kids will be called onto stage and will have an opportunity to state what their costume is and strike a pose before joining the group in a line-up. If your child is young or shy, you may opt out of this and we will announce them. Scroll on to find the registration form!

PLEASE NOTE - we cannot guarantee that in-person registrations will be taken given the volume of registrations, the details needed, and more difficult logistics. Please register online using the form below.

Online registration is open until Friday, October 18th at 6:00pm.
