Fall Festival Being Planned
Gallatin County loves a good party. A big event that your friends at the Cooperative Extension Service would like you to participate in is the Fall Pumpkin Festival onn Saturday, October 8, 2011at Riverfront Park in Warsaw.
Beginning with a parade through town at 2:00 p.m., the event will continue at the park with contests, food, art and crafts items for sale, the famous pumpkin catapult, games, and music. We would like individuals and organizations to be involved in the festivities by participating in the Pumpkin Fest Parade. Parade floats will be lined up and judged at the High School from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. with the parade beginning at 2:00 p.m. Individuals can participate in he parade by joining the "Second Saturday" group as they lead the parade.
We are also inviting school clubs and other non-profit and for-profit organizations to have a fundraising booth at the festival. See the link below for booth fee and sign-up information.
A scarecrow contest is being planned, which is open to any resident of Gallatin County. Miss Pumpkinfest Pageant, and local bands are also being planned.
Fall Pumpkin Fest is all about celebrating our community here in Gallatin County. Of course, volunteers and prizes from local businesses are needed for these events. If you are interested in volunteering, donating a prize, donating pumpkins for the catapult, participating in the parade or setting up a booth or have any questions about Fall Pumpkin Festival, please contact the Extension Office at 567-5481.
