Join the Great Safe Digging Pumpkin Challenge!

This Halloween season, we're turning pumpkins into powerful reminders of safe digging practices. We’re summoning all excavators, utilities, line locators and others who love to have some spooky fun while spreading the safe digging message! 🎃

What to do:

  • Grab a pumpkin, carve or decorate it with the theme “Dare to Dig Safe” or “It’s Spooky When You Don’t Contact 811.”

  • Email photo to [email protected] by Friday, Oct. 24.

  • Photos will be posted on our socials throughout October.

  • Winner will be chosen and notified on Tuesday, Oct. 28.

  • SPOOKTACULAR PRIZE! Yeti Cooler and $50 Home Depot gift card (total value over $250!)

So grab your carving tools and dig into safety—because nothing’s scarier than hitting a utility line. Let’s make this Halloween a scream… for safe digging!
