The Vermont Pumpkin Chuckin' Festival is now only 16 days away. On Sunday, September 26th the pumpkins will fly, winners will be crowned, chili will be eaten, and music will be enjoyed. Here are some notes and updated information that will bring you up to speed on what will be happening on Sunday at VTPC.
First, we unfortunately most announce that we will not be able to accept any credit cards this year at the festival. Please bring cash to pay for admission and any food you would like to eat.
Second, we will have a very large robot visiting us at the festival this year. Joshua Nye of Nye MechWorks will bring one of his giant robots to the festival.
Nye Mechworks build giant robots for the DIY & and hobbyist, and document the process so others can follow their work and help us build the age of Mecha.
