Pumpkin festival returns to Washougal in October

The city of Washougal will hold its annual Pumpkin Harvest Festival from noon to 3 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 15, at Hathaway Park, 732 25th St., Washougal.

“(The) Pumpkin Harvest Festival is in full swing for the first time in two years,” according to a post on the city’s Facebook page. “This event has grown so much that we’re moving it to Hathaway Park.”

Local residents are invited to wear Halloween costumes, play games, win prizes, and pick out a free pumpkin (one per child). The event will take place rain or shine.

People who are interested in volunteering at the event are encouraged to send an email to rose.jewell@cityofwashougal.us.
