THE THREE NEWSPAPERS of the North Olympic Peninsula — Peninsula Daily News, Sequim Gazette and Forks Forum — are holding an online contest to find the best Halloween costumes on the Peninsula.

We’re looking for photos of the scariest, silliest, cutest or most creative costume in two categories — Kids and Adults.

There will be first-, second- and third-place winners in each of the two categories — with prizes ourtesy of the contest’s sponsors. Plus the first-place winners will be published in the three newspapers.

Contest sponsors are Elwha River Casino ($25 slot card), First Federal ($25 in Port Angeles Downtown Dollars), Bedford’s Soda (an entire case of its root beer) and $25 gift certificates from William Shore Memorial Pool, Fiesta Jalisco Mexican Restaurant and Domino’s Pizza.

How to enter

Entering is easy: Go to http://assets.peninsuladailynews.com/images/upickem/halloween2014/halloween2014.php?landing

Pick the contest category you’d like to enter — Adults or Kids, or enter both categories.

If you’re not already registered, you’ll need to click on “Register Now,” follow the simple steps and post your photo.

The contest is free, but only residents of Clallam County or Jefferson County can enter.

And the entrant must be older than 13 years; parents can submit photos taken by their children age 12 and younger.

All entries must be submitted digitally on the Web — sorry, no entries by mail or in person.
