Operation Pumpkin in Hamilton, Ohio has informed the SOGPG that they no longer wish to sponsor or hold a GPC weigh-off. The news caught us quite off guard after several successful events and we are currently exploring different location possibilities and various other options. You can rest assured that we will have a weigh-off somewhere this fall and we will endeavor to have it at our usual time in October.

The SOGPG is quite thankful for the amount of participation we have received at Operation Pumpkin from all growers, local and distant, and for the generosity of those who have contributed to our auctions. Updates will follow as we have anything significant to report.

Sorry to hear this. Our family really enjoyed the festival and weight-off. We will be glad to still come support your SOGPG weight no matter the location.

Thank you, Nick. You're a great guy and a heck of a melon grower.

Got to be there for the first one, and the 10th anniversary one last year. It was a nice festival.
