Dalhousie Dentistry's Fourth‑Annual Pumpkin Competition

Posted by Dalhousie Dentistry on October 30, 2013 in Community Highlights

Dalhousie Dentistry is getting into the Halloween spirit with its Fourth Annual Pumpkin Carving Contest. Between noon and 2 p.m. today, 16 teams will be showcasing their carved creations in hopes of being crowned the grand champion.

Over the past three years, more than 800 guests have stopped by to view and vote for their favourite pumpkins. The Dental Lab was crowned the grand champion in both 2010 and 2012, with the DDS class of 2014 winning in 2011. It’s anyone’s game this year!

All members of the Dalhousie community are invited to stop by the first floor lobby of the Dentistry Building (5981 University Avenue) to vote for their favourite carvings. Those who are not able to attend in person are invited to vote online once the competition opens at noon. (link: facebook.com/daldentistry).

The Faculty of Dentistry would like to thank its generous sponsors, Atlantic Superstore (Barrington Street Market) and The Sweet Hereafter Cheesecakery for their generous contributions.
