Waivers for those under 18 had to be signed to carve, but there were craft supplies for those too young or lacking a parent to wield a knife. Local artists had booths set up while a stage was erected for some local bands to help entertain.
The allure of free pumpkins wasnt the only thing that was to draw people- the non-profit was hosting the banner that for each pumpkin carved, $5 would be donated to a local food bank, with no upper limit. People could also donate at one of the booths and have their donation matched, also with no upper limit, but the event itself was more than just free halloween decor- it was a community effort to see Destiny City flourish in tough times, especially with the holidays coming up!
Those seeming to run the event are dressed in various costumes, and a lot of cats seem to be running about, milking the children for pets and various bites of food.
The only sign that there might have been anything 'nefarious' was a lack of nefarious activities. It was, for once, something normal.

Welcome to Operation Pumpkin Spice!
SENSHI! Senshi are asked to volunteer helping distribute pumpkins and supplies while staying 'in costume'. Their powers muffled by cats, (Cats, feel free to show up and lend support. Just keep it to meows ;3) the senshi can work under various costumes and disguises. Please do not engage anyone who suspects you of being anything but a volunteer. This includes getting political! There is mild security that has been hired under the guise of protecting donations and performers, but really, they are hired help who are there (unknowingly) to protect you as well!
-News of this event would have been sent via Word of Mouth and via text about a week prior.
-Pollux is the one in charge, yet has been clear that this is unrelated towards his personal goals. This is something he wants to do not so much for senshi, as the community that is caught in their crossfire.
-His civilian identity is not connected to this event.
-Castor is NOT present at this event either.
---- Costumes: Can be anything you want! You are henshined, but your costume will be masking your fuku. Lumps are easily explained as supplies and radios hidden for use if needed. Candy on hand at all times people!
Chaos side players- THERE IS 0% CHANCE YOU WILL SENSE, ENCOUNTER, OR NOTICE SENSHI OR CAT PRESENCE. Please do not hint that your character gets a sense of unease, that its suspect, etc etc. ALL ORDER SIDE POWERED CHARACTERS ARE IN DISGUISE. This is an event that is to be RP'd like a civilian event, with hidden powered characters sprinkled in. If you power up well. :T WELL.
Civilians: DO WHATEVER YOUR HEART DESIRES
Knights: Please do not attend powered. As in, come powered, get removed. ICly Pollux doesn't trust knights, and the more powered there are, the more stress it is on the cats. He is more than welcoming for you to come, just not powered.
