The GWG has a new category to announce for this year. George Kopsell from Tennessee has generously given the GWG money to be used for the membership which we are using for the mystery melon award.

This category is not for the heavy hitters (whoever you are). If you have a melon placing in the top 20 of the GWG, you will not qualify for the mystery melon.

The weight for the winning watermelon will be somewhere between 120# and 170#. The weight selected by the GWG board to win this category will not be released until after the GPC weigh offs are all over. That is what makes it a mystery melon. The winner will be the one who has a watermelon closest to that selected weight without going over. In case of a tie, the award will be split. To receive this award the watermelon must be weighed in at a GPC site and be a member of the GWG.

The mystery melon award will be $30 and a 1 year GWG membership.
