The Great Pumpkin Contest Details:

Young and old alike are invited to submit a design for the Normal Public Library’s Great Pumpkin Contest! Participants are encouraged to decorate a pumpkin based on a book or literary element of their choice. Anyone can pick up a foam pumpkin from the library starting September 19 at any service desk (while supplies last) to design and return for voting by September 30!

Submission: Return your finished pumpkin to the second-floor service desk between September 19-30. Voting will take place October 13-31. One entry per person, more than one person per household may enter. All ages are encouraged to participate. 

Pumpkin Guidelines: Your pumpkin should be based on a book title, character, or literary element. You must use the provided pumpkin, but you may use other non-perishable materials to decorate. 

Pickup: If you’d like to keep your pumpkin, please pick it up from the second-floor service desk from November 1-8.
