2021 Pumpkin Parade Wrap-up & Pics!

So what do 120 pumpkins do when they get together? They have a parade! And their owners admire their entries and mingle with their neighbours.

Before announcing the winners,

  • Big thank you to everyone for the smashing pumpkin turnout!
  • Bigger thank you to Janice Barnett for championing this inaugural event
  • If you have not as yet become a member of the BWRA please join by adding you name to our mailing list.
    • It’s free
    • It reminds everyone that this is a great place to live and raise a family.
    • Please consider making an annual family donation (suggest $50 recurring) to help defray the cost of events like this for permits, insurance, green disposal bin, etc.

Lots and lots of people helped make it all happen, including…
