A look back at some frightfully fantastic pumpkins!

From spooky faces to creative carvings, entries from past years have brought plenty of Halloween spirit to Compass Inn Museum! But we have to ask… can this year’s carvers outdo the competition?

The 11th Annual Pumpkin Carving Contest returns Saturday, October 24! Families and individuals are invited to carve their ghouliest gourds, show off their creativity, and compete for prizes. Best of all, there’s no entry fee! Entries should be carved off-site and dropped off at the Compass Inn Museum on Friday, October 23 from 12-2PM or on Saturday, October 24 from 10 AM to 12 PM.

🏆 With $75, $50, and $25 prizes in each age category, there’s plenty of reason to get carving!

Think your pumpkin has what it takes to be the spookiest on this side of Route 30? 👀
