Make your plans to come on over th Santa Rosa after the Elk Grove Weigh-Off the day before. This is the first time that the Somoma County Harvest Fair has tried to do something "big" with their weigh-off, so we need LOTS of people with big pumpkins so they will want to do even more next year. I believe that the entry form is available at the following web site: www.harvestfair.org

Please note that you must pre-enter by September 2nd! I know that this is not standard operating procedure for most weith-offs, but this is part of a much larger Harvest Fair and I don't want anyone who would like to bring a pumpkin to miss out because they dont get an entry in on time! If you are having trouble getting an entry form from their web site, e-mail me and I will help you out.
