Getting ready for Halloween? Don’t forget to enter your child in Patch’s Little Pumpkin Costume Challenge, which kicks off Friday, Oct. 21. The kid with the most creative costume nationwide will win a free three-day, two-night trip to New York City or Los Angeles that includes a meet and greet with Heidi Klum. Plus, Patch will donate $1,031 on the winner’s behalf to a local charity of his or her choice. Nine runners-up will also get the chance for Patch to donate $1,031 on their behalf to a local charity of their choice. Here are some details and rules: The child being judged in the photo must be 12 years of age or younger. The person uploading the photo must be 18 years of age or older and the parent or legal guardian of the child photographed. Photos should be uploaded here by clicking “manage your photos,” above.  Be sure to include your child’s name, entrant’s name, and local charity of choice. That info can be added after the photo is uploaded, by clicking “edit photo,” and filling in the caption field.  Click here for a full set of contest rules . Submissions must be received before 9 p.m. PST on Oct. 31, Halloween night. Beverly Hills Local Editor Marie Cunningham will pick one winner that will be submitted to compete against up to 870 other local Patch winners—Klum will ultimately pick one grand prize winner, who will be contacted by email.  Good luck and visit Trick or Treat for UNICEF  to support Heidi Klum’s efforts to feed the hungry!
