Come and join the fun! Everyone is encouraged to dress in costume for our Costume Contest. Prizes will be awarded by age categories (to be announced). Vendor booths will be decorated for the occasion with Scarecrows, with vendors competing for the Best Scarecrow Prize. 

The day will include a cookout fundraiser by the Hurley Green Team 4-H Club and the market will be hosting our annual fall themed pie social, serving pumpkin, apple and other fall harvest pie with coffee and apple cider.

Kids activities will include a Make & Take Craft. They will be making Monster Magnets. There will also be Pumpkin Bowling. Yes, come and try bowling with a pumpkin, to knock down Butternut Squash (pins)!

There will be a Largest Pumpkin Contest, open to everyone in the area. Bring your largest locally grown pumpkin and enter to win a prize. Pumpkins will be measured in size, not weight. 

All activities begin at 10:00 am and Costume Judging will be at 12:00 noon, along with our 50/50 Raffle Drawing, and Winners of the Best Scarecrow and Largest Pumpkin Contests. 

Be sure to visit our two Red Barn Little Libraries and stock up on free books for your fall and winter reading time.
