Introducing the Great Pumpkin Hunt – a NEW event with Bloomington Parks & Recreation that will allow you to enjoy this autumn season with family, friends, and nature! 🎃🍂🌲We have hidden "pumpkins" (pumpkin signs) throughout our Parks System for you and your family/household to find. Three clues will be announced at 11:00 AM every Friday in October on this event page (Facebook only).
There will be a total of 13 hidden pumpkins throughout the City of Bloomington Parks System. Clues will point you in the right direction to find your pumpkins.
If you find a pumpkin, post a picture of you/your group with the pumpkin sign and where you found it on the Clue Post given on this event page.
***Limit to one entry per park.***
You will be entered into a drawing to win one of three prizes. The winners will be announced on Halloween Day (October 31).
**This event is FREE to participate!**
