The 35th Anniversary Celebration gave way to a very difficult judging process. Judges consist of a five individual teams that take their critiquing of these displays and judging them very seriously. They set out to view each and every display with a two page judging sheet. These judging sheets include questions of did the property use their venue to their advantage, was the display creative, has it been done to excess in the past, and the most important question is there at least one real pumpkin head? The judges are also asked to count how many real pumpkin heads and or gourds have been used in the display. Taking all that information and lots more convert it to the judging sheet returning it to Pumpkin Head Quarters which is the Jackson Area Chamber of Commerce Office… where all the information is reviewed and scored.

Northeast Delta Dental Mount Washington Road Race
Raises Much-Needed Funds For Local Health Services
Pinkham Notch, NH — Mount Washington has an international reputation for its severe and quickly-changing weather conditions, and it once again held true to its nature for the 59th annual Northeast Delta Dental Mount Washington Road Race. Held on June 15th, the morning brought high winds to the summit, with wind chills dropping down into the 20s. Safety is always paramount for the event, and the race organizers at the Mt. Washington Auto Road were hopeful that they wouldn’t need to implement their contingency plan to run the race to a point well below the summit. However, Mother Nature intervened just in time to part the clouds and reduce the winds, changing the home of the “world’s worst weather” to one of sunshine and prime race conditions—much to the delight of the 1,016 racers, and the fans that came to support them
