Hello to all the Growers. Just to let everyone know that the Pumpkinfest Office (where you register for the convention) will be closed from Saturday December 24th until Tuesday January 3rd at 9am. There will be staff in and out but I would ask that you wait until I return on the 3rd. You can however still call the hotel and book your rooms.
Take care and have a happy and safe holiday

Lisa.............Seems you could do better than this. You have not given the dates, the program or the telephone numbers the guys would need. More important what is the cost and the program details?

"Registration is open until February 21st and the information with hopefully be on big pumpkins soon." Doc she pretty much stated soon here. A lot of work goes into this by these girls. They do a heck of a job, along with the rest of the members involved.

I assume they have a date and surely a hotel. That is certainly known and important now.
