Pumpkin Chunkin
Saturday, November 1
10 AM - 2 PM

Prepare for a grand pumpkin chunkin' spectacle on the Nature Trail. Behold pumpkins as they take flight toward our castle keep!

Bring your own pumpkin or procure one from our horde while supplies last. Launch it toward the "castle" target using the museum's giant trebuchet (a medieval catapult). It's a blast for all ages!

Pumpkin Chunkin is included with the purchase of admission.

Thank you to William Kelly Dentistry for their generous support of Pumpkin Chunkin.
