Send Halloween out with a SPLAT! Don’t toss your Jack-O-Lanterns in the garbage—give them one last hurrah by letting us toss them from up high instead. This free outdoor event is presented by New Pioneer Food Co-op and Urban Acres Realtors (Sean McIntyre, Ben & Whitney Russell, Tundi Brady, Cathy Pugh, and Nicki Thompson).
We’ll be dropping pumpkins from the northwest corner of the parking ramp next to Chauncey Swan Park. Bring your ghoulish gourd, grab a spot with your blanket or lawn chairs, and get ready to watch the pumpkins fly. Come for the SPLATS, but stick around for outdoor activities and a warm breakfast from local food vendors.
Food Vendors: Travelin’ Tom’s Coffee (more coming soon!)
Activity Partners: Coming soon!
How It Works:
Pumpkin drop-off will start at 9:15 a.m. in Chauncey Swan Park on Saturday, November 7th
Activities will begin around 9:30 a.m.
Pumpkin SPLATS will start at 10 am. All pumpkins will be dropped by our team.
Prep Your Pumpkin:
Pumpkins must be gutted (this is Jack SPLAT, not Jack THUD).
Please remove candles, artificial lighting, or any other decorations that are in or attached to the pumpkin. This includes stickers, ribbons, and remnants of candle wax inside.
We compost Jack Splat pumpkins. Ones that have been painted or coated with a preserving sealant should not be added to a compost pile. Pumpkins coated with glitter should not be composted.
We reserve the right to reject your pumpkin if it doesn’t meet our Jack Splat standards.
