1st Annual Pumpkin Chuckin' 2008

What to do with those Jack O'Lanterns after Halloween?

Take 'em to Harmony Park and chuck 'em!!

For our first annual Pumpkin Chuckin' Event we had 13 entrants. Some threw their pumpkins while others were sent flying by catapult!
We had one catapult entered by the Eddy family, who challenged others to build one for next year. Maybe Middle School will enter next year?
Some pumpkins went pretty far!
And some exploded beautifully upon impact!!

Bike Park Improvements

Dusten Faulkner and Justin Crossley have volunteered to lead improvements to our bike park. If you'd like to help just let them know or send us an email here. They'll be working on it on weekends and after school. Great job Dusten and Justin!


The gravel was very generously donated by Mitch Salter (formerly MacKenzie) @ 497-5233. Thanks, Mitch!

Mitch also donated sand for the Primary sand play area in July - thanks again Mitch!
