The Great Pumpkin Commonwealth (GPC) is proud to announce the 38th annual Half Moon Bay Art & Pumpkin Festival’s SAFEWAY WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP PUMPKIN WEIGH-OFF is now a fully sanctioned GPC weigh off site.
The Commonwealth wishes to welcome all participants and growers to this immensely popular and now GPC annual event. The SAFEWAY WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP PUMPKIN WEIGH-OFF will be held on Monday, October 13 (7 a.m. on the IDES Grounds, 735 Main Street, Half Moon Bay), with $20,000 at stake in this “heavyweight championship” of gargantuan gourds. The World’s Greatest Gourd Growers compete for the coveted title and top prize of $6 per pound to the winner. Defending champion Thad Starr, of Pleasant Hill, Oregon, obliterated the impressive field in 2007 with his leviathan 1,524-pound Atlantic Giant. The grand champion gourd, along with the top five pumpkins, will be displayed at the Art & Pumpkin Festival, October 18-19. Weigh-off information and entry forms are available at http://www.miramarevents.com/weighoff/facts.html
