Post Park-Inspired Pumpkins On Facebook For Potential Prizes

Last updated on Monday, October 2, 2017

(UNDATED) - Decorate a pumpkin in a way that celebrates an Indiana State Park and share it on social media for a chance to win prizes this October.

"October is a great time to visit Indiana State Parks, whether for a drive to look at fall color or a weekend to enjoy our fall festivals and Halloween activities," said Ginger Murphy, deputy director of Indiana State Parks. "October is also 'pumpkin season' in Indiana, so we're putting the two together on social media."

Participants can paint or carve a pumpkin, or decorate it in some other manner, to reflect a favorite state park, or even a favorite family-friendly park activity.

Then snap a photo of the pumpkin or even a selfie with it (no filters, please), and post it on the Indiana State Parks Facebook page with the hashtag #INStateParksPumpkin. Include a short explanation of why you created your particular pumpkin. You'll be entered in a contest to win a 2018 annual pass, $50 camping gift card, $50 state park inns gift card or 2018 lake permit.
