This is a new non GPC event and they are offering top dollar for the eastern US it seems. It is also a fairly central location being just north of Cincinnati.

They are hosting a 3 day event that sounds like it would be a lot of fun. If this is for real, I think it could become the premier weigh-off location in the eastern United States.

Tennessee Dreamer, my name is Jason Snyder and I am the one hosting this event and it is real. I appreciate all the positive comments and hope to someday be a premier location for all growers. There have been some changes to the prize structure, I had several growers contact me and they felt that we needed to pay out to more growers. After meeting with my committee we decided this was a good idea. We are now paying out to the top 20 pumpkins. The down side to this is that we only have so much money, therefore the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd prizes have decreased. The prizes are as follows 1- 5,000 2-3,000 3-2,000 4- 1500 5- 1000 6th thru 10th pays 500 11th thru 15th pays 300 and 16th thru 20th pays 200. I hope you would still be interested in attending. Any questions please call 513-635-7776 or visit our website at Operation-pumpkin.org.
