Come one, come all! Step right up and play the game! Everyone has a chance to win a prize!
It is time once again for Webb Weekly’s annual Halloween contest! This is one of my favorite Webb Weekly moments of the year! This year we will be taking a spooky turn as we count the ghouls!
I’m sure you know how this works, but just in case you forgot, let me refresh your memory.
Peppered throughout this issue, you will find a variety of Ghouls. The rules of the game are simple. Count up all the little friends you find in October 12th and October 19th editions of the paper. Then take the total of the two weeks together and send them to me. Easy as pie…
I will then take everyone who answered correctly and pick ten random winners. Winners will receive a bucket full of goodies big enough to have all the local dentists knocking on my door! Whether that’s to thank me for the business or scold me for the sugar is yet to be determined. But have no doubt, it’s a serious amount of candy. I hit the stores like Garfield hits a lasagna.
The easiest way to enter the contest is to email the answer to contest@webbweekly.com, or you can drop a postcard in the snail mail at Webb Weekly, 280 Kane St., Suite 2, South Williamsport, PA 17702. Or, if you are so inclined, you can drop your entry off at our office; we are open Monday-Thursday, 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m., and Fridays we are usually here until around 2 p.m. Entries must be submitted by October 21st around noon or so. Winners will be listed in the October 26th edition. But I’ll call or email the winners before that.
Remember, the contest is only open to kiddos 12 and under, and only one entry per kid.
Each year we rotate through the local animal shelters and donate $1 for each entry received. This year is LAPS turn, so let’s help the sweet fur babies! Be sure to get your entries in and help support a great cause. Plus, ya know — candy. So. Much. Candy.
So, look carefully and count them up! I get a little sneaky when I place them, so make sure you check every page closely!
A Halloween contest can only mean that fall is here, and Halloween is right around the corner! Have you picked your costume yet?
We’d love to hear about you and/or your kids’ Halloween costumes, so share it with us on Facebook, or better yet, post some pictures!
If I receive enough pictures via Facebook (fb.com/webbweekly) and/or email (webbnews@webbweekly.com), maybe you’ll see your little one on an upcoming cover! You can even attach the picture to your email entry (contest@webbweekly.com).
Now, I gotta run skeleton! Enjoy the spooky season!
