Book Character Pumpkin Contest 2025
-
Real pumpkins will NOT be accepted due to our district allergy policy. Foam pumpkins can be found at stores like Target, Michaels or Hobby Lobby.

Participation is voluntary. Students choosing to participate must provide their own pumpkins and decorating materials. Yarn, construction paper, pipe cleaners, permanent markers, felt, paint, tacky glue or hot glue work well.
-
Students are encouraged to display the matching book or cover, if possible. Please make sure names are inside any personal books.

Students may enter as a family with siblings. The pumpkin will be judged with the grade level of the oldest sibling in the group.
Entries may be brought to the Elm Library from Wednesday, October 15th through Friday, October 24th. No late entries will be accepted. Voting will be the week of October 27th during library classes.

There will be one winner from each grade level. Winners will be announced on the morning announcements on November 4th and will receive a free book at our November book fair. Pumpkins must be taken home by Friday, November 7th.
