Come be a part of our annual PUMPKIN DECORATING contest! You'll have two weeks to turn your pumpkin into an amazing work of art or humor based on your favorite literary characters, books or stories. Carve it, paint it, cover it with glitter or fabric or googley eyes and return it to the Edmond Library in time for voting. The Literary Pumpkin is open to ALL AGES this year - children, teens, and adults! ANYONE MAY ENTER. YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE REGISTERED. Registration includes a mini pumpkin, but contestants may provide their own pumpkin and submit an entry form regardless of registration status. Entry forms and rules are available at the reference desks. Pumpkins will be provided WHILE SUPPLIES LAST. We can only guarantee one kit per registrant. If you have multiple participants needing a kit, please register them individually to ensure that kits are appropriately distributed. Do not use the Special Notes section to add additional registrants. Kits can be picked up at Edmond Library from Monday, September 23rd through Sunday, September 29th at the Children's desk or via Curbside pickup, which begins at 1pm daily. Registered customers must pick up kits by Sunday at 5 PM or call the library at (405) 341-9282 to make alternate pick up arrangements as any remaining kits will be made available to waitlisted customers on Monday, September 30th. Pumpkins may be returned beginning Tuesday, October 7th. The final submission deadline is Sunday, October 13th by 6 pm.
