6th PumpkinFest held Oct. 12-14

HUDSON – Organizers are gearing up for some old-fashioned fall fun at the sixth annual Kiwanis Hudson PumpkinFest on Oct. 12-14 on the grounds of the Hills House on Derry Road. PumpkinFest has become one of the largest outdoor craft fairs in southern New Hampshire, offering family entertainment; more than 100 crafters and vendors participated last year. “The event is well-publicized and drew about 5,000 people per day” said Mike Falzone, one of the event organizers. Along with handmade goods, guests enjoy a carnival midway, petting zoo, pony ride, games, free entertainment, food and a beer tent. A classic car show will take place from 9 a.m.-2 p.m. Saturday.
