Sunny skies and unusually warm weather made for perfect conditions when the Hawkseye community in Lewes held its inaugural pet costume contest Oct. 28.

The Hawkseye Social Committee held the event to raise funds and awareness for Humane Animal Partners Delaware.

Serving as judges were HAP volunteers Wesley and Connie Paulson, and community resident Kim Hoey Stevenson. Pets were judged in three different categories.

Funniest costume honoree was Sophie, whose humans are Phil Hutchison and Kath Supplee. The award for most creative costume went to Maddie, pup of Chuck and Stephanie Smolka.

Best overall costume was awarded to Lewey, accompanied by family member Katie Resnick.

Additional contest winners were Claire James, who made the closest guess for the weight of a pumpkin; Kendall Speakman with the closest guess on the number of candy corn kernels in a jar; and Cora Hershelman, who won the chrysanthemum drawing.
