I'd like to grow one worth going to the weigh-off for. I am really going for orange and round though.

One good pumpkin for a new PB. Enough variety around the edges to be pleasing in case the primary goal is not achieved.

Well I hoping for good weather with no hail hopefully and crushing the Georgia state record. I really believe I can do it this year and hopefully in the future will get a weigh off in the state of Georgia.
