The high school Student Council's third annual Pumpkin Chuckin Contest raised $215 for Meals on Wheels by collecting money in voting buckets so students could vote for the teacher they thought couldwin the contest.

Timothy Schwarz was the teacher champ, but then had to throw against student, Julius Toth. Toth beat Schwarz to earn the 2014 trophy. Special awards went to Andrew Walker's Cinderella pumpkin toss, Denise O'Connell's height in her toss, David Martin's pity pumpkin toss (he had the largest pumpkin to throw), Daniel Repsher for his spiral toss and Schwarz and Michael Facchiano for raising the most money.
