Bring your own pumpkin and decorate it using supplies provided by the Library. Decorated pumpkins will be entered into a contest during our Fall Festival event on October 10th!
Explore your creativity with a fun autumnal activity! Using your own pumpkin or gourd, create a design individually or in a group for a chance to win a snack-pack prize basket. Pumpkins will be displayed around the lake in Halle Park during the library’s Fall Festival event on Thursday October 10th, 2024. Fall Festival participants can vote for their favorite design as they walk around the lake and trick-or-treat! The pumpkin with the most votes will win. This contest is open to youth in grades K – 12 and families. Registration is required and will open on September 25th, 2024.
If you are signing up for a family or group, please register only once with the best contact information for your group.
