We will be talking about what we have done, learning from you, enjoying the walking, share what we know about CERT and enjoying the neighborhood. Feel free to ask questions, walk with us, or just see us when we meet in your neighborhood area.
We are doing this walk because last year’s walk was so fun and inspiring that we have talked about it in ever since.

Here are the general rules:
Pumpkins must be carved, but other decoration is allowed. One pumpkin per SF household member. Send a picture, name, pumpkin name, age and address (so people can see it displayed). A group of independent judges will select a winner for each category: Kids (under 12), Adults (13+) Funniest, Scariest, Most creative, and lastly a survey will select a Fan Favorite.
If the bragging rights don’t sway you, We will also have prices including gift cards from our sponsors in the crossroads mall: Tutta Bella, Creatively yours ceramic studio, GameOver videogames and Ivars.
If you don’t feel you’re cut out to carve a pumpkin, why not be a contest judge? We’re looking for 6 people to be on the judge’s panel. If this interests you, please send an email to sfccbelelvue@hotmail.com
