We’re excited to introduce our Pumpkin Decorating Contest!

We know the Fair is a summer tradition, but that doesn’t mean the fun has to stop once it's passed. We want to keep a little Fair spirit going all year long, and what better way to start than with pumpkins?

Grab a real or artificial pumpkin and get creative! Paint it, decorate it, dress it up or turn it into something completely unexpected.

👻 Youth & Adult Divisions
🎃 Real or artificial pumpkins welcome
🚫 Decorating only — NO carving!

Prizes will be awarded in both divisions, plus you’ll get some serious bragging rights.
