The Parks Department is taking the big orange gourds seriously with Camp Sunshine's First Annual Pumpkin Festival on Saturday. There will be a pumpkin patch, farmer's market, puppets, and entertainment like the Big Apple Circus and Chris Barron. All proceeds will go towards Camp Sunshine, a retreat for children with life-threatening illnesses and their families
The centerpiece of the festival will be the attempt to break the world record for the most simultaneously lit jack-o’-lanterns set by Boston in 2006. Come on, New Yorkers, you can do it!
The activities are from noon till 8PM, with the pumpkins lit around 4PM
