Pumpkin Chuck
November 4, 2023 @ 12:00 pm - 5:00 pm
It’s baaaaaacckkk! Your favorite pumpkin smashing event will once again be held at Stanbery Park. A partnership between the Mt. Washington Community Council and the Stanbery Park Advisory Council, with financial support from the city of Cincinnati’s Neighborhood Support Fund and the Cincinnati Park Foundation, the Pumpkin Chuck is a can’t miss post-Halloween event. It’s even received coverage from the NFL while covering a Bengals game!
The Pumpkin Chuck uses handmade, locally built trebuchets to launch your rotting pumpkin into the Stambery Park sledding hill. For $5 our guests can launch a random pumpkin by pulling the trebuchets rope. For $15 you get to launch YOUR OWN PUMPKIN, making it a more personal experience. Regardless of what pumpkin your launch, our resident deers, squirrels and other wildlife will thank you for their feast.
While wandering the park you can enjoy food and drinks from many vendors, beer from Big Ash brewery, live local music, games, crafts, and more!
