WOW: GB Rotary Will be Offering Fun Events for Kids This Sunday (58 photos)
If you are looking for something fun and entertaining for the kids and yourself this weekend, Great Barrington Rotary's Truck Day/Pumpkin Fest event is a fine option. In the past, Truck Day has been held during the month of May, but this year you'll be getting the fall version which is a big win. Why you ask? Because this year, you're getting a bonus as Pumpkin Fest will be combined with Truck Day. That's right, you're basically getting two events for the price of one.
Kids love Great Barrington Rotary's Truck Day Event
I've been to a number of Truck Day events in the past and let me tell you the kids absolutely love it. Truck Day was designed for kids as they can climb on all sorts of trucks, sit inside and honk the horns. Plus, an old beat-up vehicle is usually on-premises for youngsters to paint up and make a mess of...a child's dream. Heck, even adults can get into that fun without hesitation.
What activities will be offered at this year's Great Barrington Rotary Truck Day/Pumpkin Fest event?
This year Great Barrington Rotary's Truck Day/Pumpkinfest event will be held this Sunday, Oct. 17 at Ski Butternut on 380 State Road in Great Barrington from 10 am - 3 pm. Nobody will complain about being bored as there will once again be vehicles for families to explore including race cars. There will be games, a silent auction & raffles, a giant pumpkin drop (which is at 2 pm), pumpkin painting, even a duck race. Not to mention there will be food & drinks galore along with face painting opportunities for the kids. WSBS will be on-site from 10 am -1 pm, spinning tunes and making announcements. Stop by our table for a request.
