The Pumpkin Festival includes 3 competitions, with each contest divided by age groups: age 7 years & under | age 8-15 years | age 16-adult
Pumpkin Car Races
Decorate your squash in any way you desire and then put wheels on it so it
rolls. Wheels may be made out of any material, including vegetables, but the
pumpkin should be able to move on the wheels; it must be able to roll down the
market track. Prizes are given for decorations and market bucks are given for
race
Register Premade Cars
Most Creatively Decorated Cars Announced
aces begin
• Race cars must be made of real pumpkins
• The pumpkin should be the vehicle, not a roller skate or Tonka Truck
• Wheels and axles must be inserted in the pumpkin and can be made of wood, metal, vegetable, or plastic
•
The width of one track is 11 inches, so the car must be no wider than that.
Pumpkin Carving Contest
Tools and market supplied pumpkin provided. Carving starts at 8:30 a.m. and ends at 10 a.m. Carve a pumpkin of any size. You can bring a pumpkin you carved from home or carve one at the market!
All Ages invited to participate! Make a clever costume. No commercial kits, please, though various components of pre-made costumes may be used. Your costume should be wholly unique.
