Preserve | Pumpkin Carving Contest
- Sat, Oct 12, 2024
- 6:00 pm–8:00 pm
Come join us at the preserve for a night of fall fun! Carve a pumpkin–on your own or with a team–while surrounded by the beauty of changing colors on the Venema Plaza. You’ll also get the chance to enter your carving to be judged for the chance to win prizes in one of our four categories:
The Classic Jack - for best classic pumpkin face
The Critter Carver - for best animal carving
The Spooky-Scary - for best halloween-themed carving
The Perfect Cut - for the most skilled, technically-beautiful carving
Our panel of judges includes Pastor Mary herself, and even a special guest judge who calls the Preserve home. Finally, enjoy donuts from Post Family farm and apple cider made on the spot! The first 30 people to register will be provided with a free pumpkin to carve for the night, otherwise this event is bring-your-own-pumpkin (or watermelon, or pepper, or squash). Families and Calvin students alike are welcome!
