We want to show off YOUR pumpkins! At home, decorate a small pumpkin as your favorite book character, then bring it in to the Main Library Children's Room for display! All pumpkins will win an award. What will yours get? Guidelines: Pumpkins should be no bigger than your head. Please, no pierced or cut pumpkins - they spoil too fast indoors. Dates: Drop-off is any open hours from 9 AM on October 16 to 5 PM on October 23. Pumpkins MUST be picked up between October 27 and October 30. Any pumpkins not picked up by 5 PM on October 30 will be discarded. This program is made possible by the generous sponsorship of the Friends of the Thomas Crane Public Library.
