(K) Mini Pumpkin Decorating Contest: Ages 0-5

Ages 0-5. Caregivers do not need to register, so please only register children.

Celebrate the fall season by decorating your own mini pumpkin and enter our contest to win a prize! Pumpkins and supplies will be available. Simply come in, decorate, and leave your name and point of contact in case you get chosen as the winner. And in the meantime, you can have your pumpkin displayed in the library as decoration!

The winning participant will be notified within a week after the contest. To avoid the pumpkins going rotten, we ask all participants to pick up their entrees within at most two weeks after the contest.

This contest will be divided into two categories: one for ages 0-5 and one for ages 6-11. Please make sure to sign your child(ren) up for the correct category.

Note: This program will take place on October 7th, November 9th, and December 9th. Please only register for one session.
