Pumpkin Decorating Contest 2020

It’s that time of year. That’s right, it’s time for our annual pumpkin decorating contest. So, let your creativity give them “pumpkin” to talk about

Here are the rules and guidelines for this year:

  • Each department is responsible for providing its own pumpkin.
  • Objects, paper, fabric, or clothing may be glued, pinned, or affixed to the pumpkin.
  • Paint, markers, and other art materials are acceptable.
  • DO NOT carve or hollow out your pumpkin.
  • Upload a picture of your department’s pumpkin to the Pulse+ app no later than Thursday, October 22, 2020.
  • You must be on Pulse+ to enter the contest.
  • When uploading: In the subject line you must add your department and the category – Day Shift, Night Shift, Ambulatory Offices, or Corporate Offices – for your pumpkin submission.

Due to the pandemic, we want to remind the teams who participate in the contest to practice physical distancing and to wear a mask while decorating their pumpkins.

Pumpkins will not be displayed in the cafeteria this year, but will be displayed on our new Pulse+ app. You can begin voting ONLY on Pulse+ from October 26 through October 30, 2020.

All Cooper employees will get a chance to review the display and ‘like’ their favorite pumpkin. The display with the most ‘likes’ for each category will be the winner for that category. Employees can only ‘like’ each display once.

PUMPKINS SHOULD BE ‘LIKED’ ACCORDING TO:
• Originality
• Quality of work
• Creative use of materials

PRIZES:
A $100 gift card will be awarded to the department with the best decorated pumpkin in the following categories:
• Day Shift
• Night Shift
• Ambulatory Offices
• Corporate Offices

Winners for each category will be announced during the week of Nov. 2, 2020.
