#BloorcourtPumpkins

Bloorcourt Pumpkins is back!
In celebration of Fall and Halloween, we created this community initiative in the fall of 2018. 

How does it work?

Bloorcourt businesses will be given a pumpkin to decorate, carve, dress up, paint or get creative with.  Members of the community will then need to visit the pumpkins online (by following the hashtag #BloorcourtPumpkins) or visiting them in store. 

Then, members of the community will vote for their favourite pumpkins!

When does it take place? 
Pumpkins should be ready and on display in stores or windows by October 25th for voting to take place from October 26th to November 1st @ 11:59pm.

Where does voting take place? 
Vote online here!

One round of voting per email.  Voting closes on November 1st at 11:59pm.

What are the prizes? 
The winning Business Pumpkins will win cash awards as follows: 
  • 1st Place - $100
  • 2nd Place - $75
  • 3rd Place - $50
***Prize money is intended for the winning business to spend it on their staff/team such as buying treats or a round of coffees or beverages in celebration. 

Community Voter Prizes
There are also 4 (four) cash prizes of $25 that will be drawn at random by all qualifying email addresses that voted for their favourite pumpkins. 
*individual staff members of businesses are eligible to vote. 

When will the prizes be announced?
All prizes will be announced or winners contacted no later than November 10th, 2019. 

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at [email protected]

Land Acknowledgement
The City of Toronto acknowledges that what we now call Toronto is on the traditional territory of many nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. The City also acknowledges that Toronto is covered by Treaty 13 signed with the Mississaugas of the Credit, and the Williams Treaties signed with multiple Mississaugas and Chippewa bands.

African Ancestral Acknowledgement
The City of Toronto acknowledges all Treaty peoples – including those who came here as settlers – as migrants either in this generation or in generations past - and those of us who came here involuntarily, particularly those brought to these lands as a result of the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade and Slavery. We pay tribute to those ancestors of African origin and descent
