Thrilling Thursdays: Pumpkin Carving
October's Thrilling Thursday continued our annual tradition of a team pumpkin carving competition (because when Uli is the Emperor of the Party Planning Comittee, every activity must have a winner).
Before the carving day, Uli, Turner and Ashlee set out to purchase 18 pumpkins from a local pumpkin patch. They graced the foyer of our office in anticipation of Thursday's showdown.
On Thursday, the VisionPointers selected their pumpkins, designs and carving tools and were given 1.5 hours to complete their pumpkins before judging. The competition was brutal with designs ranging from skulls to cupcakes, jack-o-lanterns to an owl.
Judging commenced inside the conference room as everyone was asked to pick their top two favorites and cast their votes to Uli. When all was said and done, Erik won his second Thrilling Thursday contest in a row and received another $15 giftcard to iTunes.
Happy Halloween everyone!

I’m making plans for next year, but I’m going to need three pumpkins, a dremel motorized sculpting tool and some reference materials from the famous New York club CBGB circa 1979. Oh and a subwoofer.
