A beloved Holton tradition, the Middle School Pumpkin Carving Extravaganza gives students a spirited creative outlet, and this year's event brought out their very best efforts.

Girls were assigned to groups and had time to brainstorm their theme and supplies ahead of time, then had one hour the day before Halloween to execute their plan. After carving, painting, gluing, and otherwise decorating their pumpkins in the Dining Room, students brought their masterpieces to the Black Box Theater, where they were illuminated and displayed for judging.

The range of ideas and finished products were remarkably impressive, and included a VW surf bus, Cinderella pumpkin carriage, Cookie Monster, a pumpkin spice latte, a gumball machine, Mike from Monsters, Inc., and lots of frightening pumpkins. Guest judges awarded prizes in several categories: best overall (popcorn "box"), most creative (VW bus), most original (piña
colada), and scariest (Venom).
