6th Annual Halloween Pumpkin Carving Party!
Friday, October 27 10:30 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. Crossroads Community Center 16000 NE 10th St., Bellevue Join us for a fun morning of carving Jack-O-Lanterns! If this is your first Halloween in the U.S., you'll enjoy learning this very American tradition of pumpkin carving. Even if you're an experienced pumpkin-carver, you can still come and have fun creating a Jack-O-Lantern with your friends!
Bring your own pumpkin. The medium or large-size pumpkins are best for carving. (The smaller "sugar-pumpkins" are good for cooking, but don't work well for carving.) Bring carving tools or a carving kit, if you have them. You can buy these at Bartell's, QFC, Safeway, Fred Meyer, etc. I will have extra carving tools on hand, if you don't have any. Or you can use a kitchen knife. I'll bring some helpful info about pumpkin carving and Halloween, and we'll have some tasty pumpkin treats as well. All are welcome! Any age!! Hope you can join us! Please RSVP on our Meetup site so we know how many people to expect. For more info about Halloween, check out our October Blog Post! |
