Pumpkins! Pumpkins! Pumpkins!


The Kilpatrick Library is hosting its tenth annual BOOK CHARACTER Pumpkin Decorating Extravaganza for OKE families, from October 26th –30th! You can use paint, fabric, and other craft supplies to transform an ordinary orange pumpkin into your favorite character from a book! Perhaps you can use a little red paint to make Clifford or some yellow yarn to make Goldilocks! We’re looking for pumpkins that are created, not carved!

The pumpkin characters will be on display in the library for all to enjoy! The library is open each morning at 8:00 a.m.This event is an Extravaganza, and not a contest. Pumpkins will not be judged, but will be enjoyed by students and parents! What a fun seasonal activity for the whole family to enjoy! We’ll invite some of our students to share their creations on announcements each morning throughout the Extravaganza. Also, ALL student participants will receive a special pumpkin dog tag for their Reading Chain! Have fun and happy decorating!

Important Dates:

  • Monday, October 26th - Thursday, October 29th: Bring your pumpkin creations to the library!
  • Friday, October 30th: All pumpkins not picked up in the morning will be sent home with students at dismissal.
