Pumpkin Day a highlight of Thanksgiving weekend
Pumpkin Day - Sensational Elora had great weather for its Pumpkin Day event on Oct. 10 at Bissell Park in Elora. Children carved pumpkins, competed for prizes then took their pumpkins home with them. Along with watching Kevin Bender carve a face on a 40-pound pumpkin, those attending could enjoy a bouncy castle, reptile show and other entertainment.
