The Spar in Old Town Tacoma is holding a pumpkin carving contest Oct. 28 beginning 9 p.m.  With prizes for the best efforts, it should be fun.  Join the Spar again on Halloween night when The Scuzztones get things rocking at 9 p.m.  Those in costume will receive special $3 pints.  Those in costume better than the Scuzztones should be proud. â€" Michael Swan
