MANCHESTER – There was more than one great pumpkin found over at AristaCare, a senior living care provider located at 1770 Tobius Avenue.
A special decorating contest was held as part of some Halloween fun which featured a number of creative entries. Layla Lee, the receptionist at the Tobius Avenue location noted that the decorating contest also involved their Whiting location as well.
The winner was a large tree that featured a mechanical crow who cawed, ET (a painted pumpkin) in a basket was the second prize winner. There was also a witch’s cauldron made from a pumpkin, a bubble gum machine, a caramel apple, a mug of Starbucks coffee and a Back To The Future inspired entry called “Outta Time.”
Staff members and clients of AristaCare were part of the contest including the judging of each entry according to Lee.
“We’ve done things like this before and it is a lot of fun,” she said. Many of the staff at AristaCare added to the fun of Halloween by dressing up in costume for work.
