Everyone could probably have anticipated that we had to do this. But, it still hurts to make the formal announcement. We hope to see you all next year.
Press Release:
12th Annual “Vermont Pumpkin Chuckin' Festival” postponed to 2021
Stowe, Vermont, June 16, 2020: Due to the coronavirus, the 12th annual Vermont Pumpkin Chuckin Festival has been postponed this year until September 26th, 2021. Competitors now have an extra year to prepare and test their trebuchet. Thanks to the Stoweflake Resort and Spa for allowing us to use their beautiful event field and to the Clarina Howard Nichols Center and all the other sponsors and volunteers for helping run the event.
The festival has run 11 years in a row, and last year the festival won the USA Today Best Fall Festival in the nation! VTPC Festival is a fun, family event giving kids and adults a chance to build something with their hands and compete; a cross between a shot put contest and a Soap Box Derby. For the specifications, rules, current records and entry information please visit the festival's website (http://vtpumpkinchuckin.blogspot.com/) for details.
