10th Annual Pumpkin Festival

a "GOURD" Success

It was a beautiful day on Saturday, October 27th at the 10th Annual Pumpkin Festival. Over 25,000 people flooded Discovery Park at L.L. Bean in Freeport, Maine to enjoy a day filled with fun games, yummy food, great tunes, a costume parade and of course Pumpkin carving!

With 7,658 pumpkins on display, it was quite a sight to see! As the day drew to a close, and numbers started to add up, a total of over $80,000 was raised - which is enough to fund an entire session here at Camp Sunshine!

Special thanks to our gracious host, L.L. Bean and our generous lead sponsors, Hancock Lumber and TD Bank! We could not have pulled off this 1st class event without our amazing volunteer support throughout the day, our other wonderful and dedicated sponsors and of course all of those who attended the event. THANK YOU!
