The Scarsdale Recreation Department estimates that 645 people participated in the annual Halloween Window Painting contest – which is no small feat for the recreation department staff and parents to organize. Thankfully the weather was ideal for painting and the sunny, dry conditions made for great results. Due to the simultaneous scheduling of the Scarsdale Concours d'Elegance, a vintage car show in downtown Scarsdale, painters were located on Weaver Street, Palmer Avenue and the Golden Horseshoe Shopping Center – but according to Dan Walczewski at the Recreation Department everything ran well and there were few complaints.
Participants included 157 individual entries, 124 team entries and 120 parent/child collaborations.
The Grand Prize was awarded to Kathleen Kantor who is a sophomore at Scarsdale High School for her painting pictured at left that shows a unicorn with a candy corn horn. See the real thing at Lange's Deli in Scarsdale.
The award ceremony will take place on Thursday November 7 at 7:30 pm at the Quaker Ridge School auditorium. Congratulations to all the participants.
