Deadline Today for Patch's Best Halloween Costume Contest

While last Wednesday night's weather made for one of the nicest Halloweens in recent memory for the Roseville area; big sections of America's East Coast were mopping from the devastation of Hurricane Sandy.

As a result of the weather disaster, most Halloween activities were postponed in that region. And, in turn, Patch decided to extend the deadline for its national Best Halloween Costume Contest to 11:59 p.m. today (Monday, Nov. 5).

So, if you were out with your kids at parties or trick-or-treating and snapped some photos of them wearing their Halloween costumes, please consider entering them in our Patch contest.

National judges will choose 21 finalists from each Patch state and select one grand prize winner based on who has the most creative and innovative costume (we've combined North Carolina & South Carolina for this contest, as well as Washington D.C. and Virginia). Each state finalist will receive $250 and one grand prize winner will receive $5,000.

If your costume is the best in Minnesota and will put all others to shame, enter our contest now for the chance to win $5,000.
