Pumpkins in the Park Goes Digital 2020 features an online pumpkin carving and costume contest.
Tuesday, October 27th. you can attend a virtual story reading with the Brian Patch in Bangor.
There’s also a trivia contest.
It all starts this Friday, October 23rd with a scavenger hunt. Folks can find a clue sheet on the UCP Facebook page.
Folks can go to each business and find a UCP of Maine pumpkin on their storefront window," says Andrew Lohman with UCP of Maine. "And they can take a picture of it or they can just submit something to us saying- we saw it here.”>
There are prizes for each contest.
