Our first annual Pumpkin Walk will be held this year!
We encourage anyone who wants to carve a pumpkin to be part of our Pumpkin Walk! Prizes will be awarded for the best carvings. Carved Pumpkins can be dropped off at Simonds Park between 5 - 7 pm on Friday, Oct. 27. We will set up your pumpkin the day of the event.
The pumpkins can be silly, artistic, or spooky, but need to be family friendly. Each pumpkin will be given a number, which will allow us to keep track of the different pumpkins. We will provide a fake tea-light to go into each pumpkin and will arrange them on the new Universally Accessible Treehouse at Simonds Park. During the Spooktacular event, a panel of judges and participants will be able to vote for their favorite pumpkin. You do not need to be present at the Spooktacular event to enter a pumpkin.
