Best witches for a happy Halloween! Enter our costume and pumpkin-carving contests!

PENINSULA DAILY NEWS is holding two online photo contests to find the best carved pumpkins and best Halloween costumes on the North Olympic Peninsula.

You can submit a photo of your carved pumpkin to the Pumpkin Carving Contest — or submit a photo of your scariest, silliest, cutest or most creative costume to the Halloween Costume Contest.

Contests are free to enter, and residents of Clallam County or Jefferson County can enter photos in both.

And there are prizes to be won!

To enter, go to Peninsula Daily News Contests page at http://ww2.peninsuladailynews.com/Contests/index.html .

Pick the contest you’d like to enter, then click on the “Submission” tab and follow the instructions for registering and submitting your photos.

If there are people in the photograph, please supply their first and last names.

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

Deadline to enter both contests is 3 p.m. Nov. 2 (that’s this coming Wednesday).

To view entries as they are posted, click on either of the contest boxes on the website and then the “View Entries” tab.

Winners will be chosen by the public in online voting from Nov. 2 to Nov. 9.

Voting is also free. You can vote up to five times per day during the voting period.

The three entries in each contest that receive the most online votes will win prizes courtesy of the contests’ sponsors — Port Angeles Naval Elks, Twisted Mischief, Ambrosia, Hadlock Building Supply, Big Pig Thrift Store, Pacific Rim Hobby, Country Aire, Goodwill, Port Angeles Downtown Association and H.O.W.L.

Questions or problems posting a photo?

Phone technical support (Josh Winters) at 360-417-7688 (there’s voice mail 24/7), or send a detailed email to susan.stoneman@peninsuladailynews.com.
