The 27th Bridgehampton Lions Carving Contest will be held at the Bridgehampton Museum / Corwith House ( across from the Community House ) on Sunday, October 26th, starting @ 5pm. It’s open to ALL AGES, FREE to enter, and FREE to see, but you can’t win unless you bring a carved pumpkin or squash-like life form to enter in the contest – be part of the spectacle!
Don’t forget the categories! If you carve to fit a category, you will be way more likely to win. Pick your favorite, or if you can’t decide, carve 3! You can enter in up to 3 categories. Sometimes, a category has just a few entries, so there may be a guaranteed win in your future if you make the effort.
