Great Pumpkin Day- October 24th
Kent County 4-H will hold this popular event at Loblolly Acres 3893 Turkey Point Rd, Viola, DE 19979 in the Magnolia Barn. There will be decorated pumpkins, decorated wreaths, a costume contest, games, activities led by Kent County Junior Council members, refreshments, and so much more!
Please bring your entries beginning at 2:00 pm; entries must be in place by 2:30 pm; judging begins promptly at 2:30 pm. Light refreshments will be provided by the Kent County Leaders. Great Pumpkin Day is open to everyone in 4-H. After the contest, it would be a great community service project for clubs to place their pumpkins around the community. We need to share 4-H with our community.
