The hot spot (literally) was the Custom*Art*Historic Division due to their annual "Chili Cookoff." This year's winner was Joe Morgan. Afterwards, everyone got to feast on all the entries. Among those enjoying the culinary skills of Gibson employees were Steven Curtis Chapman and the Carradine Brothers.

All the divisions had costume contests but since there were so many great costumes, it was difficult to pick a hands-down winner. Our favorite was Heather Thompson-Cook, who supplies much of the graphic work for Gibson.Net.

Here's a sampling of Gibsonite creativity when it's not aimed at guitar building and marketing. Happy Halloween, and enjoy!!!
