The Triangle West Recognition Committee is excited to announce our second annual pumpkin decorating contest and we are excited that our School of Medicine teammates will be joining the competition!


We are looking for the spookiest, silliest and most creative pumpkins to help us celebrate the cooler temperatures and to liven up our units with a bit of seasonal fun!

SOM non-clinical department leaders will receive an order form if your team would like to order a pumpkin  but teams are welcome to decorate their own pumpkin and submit a photo. Pumpkins ordered through SOM will be available for pick up the week of Sept. 26 at UNC Hospitals in Chapel Hill.

A contest photo should be submitted by Oct. 21 to newsemp@unchealth.unc.edu. Winning pumpkins will be featured in Vital Signs and on UNC Health and School of Medicine social media. Winning teams will receive a fun prize!

We hope that you will plan to join us in this fun, team-building activity!
