Central Market Weighoff, Weather was horrible but they were well prepared with large tents and lots of seating. The event was very well organized and I met lots of super nice people. First Place was with a 1519.5 from Cindy Tobeck

The Picture is of my 3 that i had entered 2 pumpkins 1 which was exhibition and 1 squash for Central Market October 10th. I was hoping my biggest OTT pumpkin of the year was going to go heavy but it ended up being my first light pumpkin of the year, go figure. My squash ended up beating the BC record which was set last year by Kate Mumford. This year was great I was able to meet my two goals 1 which was grow a pumpkin over 1,400 pounds, I grew a 1427 and 1411 and get in the 4,000 pound heavy hitter club which gets me a fancy Jacket.

I won two weighoff's this year with heaviest pumpkin overall. I entered 3 weighoffs this year and had a total of 7,270 pounds weighed including my exhibition pumpkins.
