Washington, United States • 4 Oct 2025

It offers a timed 5K that is a double or nothing, plus a shorter Pumpkin Trail walk for those seeking a lighter distance. The atmosphere includes music, games, and snacks, with prizes for best costume, largest family participation, and fastest finishers. The course may be adjusted for inclement weather, and pumpkins are kept by finishers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
