Last year, an (almost 13 year old) 7th grader living in Escondido California was thinking about what he was going to do for Halloween. It's his second favorite holiday but covid-19 made trick-or-treating dangerous. In response he turned to a different tradition, costume contests. He and his dad had been thinking about starting one up for a while, and with nothing better to do during covid, he said to himself "Why not make my own?"

HCC 2020 did leaps better than I could have ever expected with 24 entrees and, in year two, I'm just as hopeful.
