Get ready for a splash of autumnal excitement at North Port Parks & Recreation's annual Pumpkin Plunge! Join us on Oct. 19 from 9 to 11 a.m. at the North Port Aquatic Center (6205 W. Price Blvd.) for a unique and fun-filled event perfect for the whole family.

Pumpkin Plunge incorporates traditional harvest-time activities with an aquatic twist, offering participants the chance to "pick" their pumpkin from a floating pumpkin patch. Once a favorite pumpkin has been chosen, make your way to one of the art stations to decorate it and take home, enjoy games and activities, and create unforgettable memories with your family.

"The Pumpkin Plunge is a fantastic way to celebrate the fall season in a safe and engaging environment," says Aquatic Manager, Devón Poulos. "Whether you're a pumpkin enthusiast or just looking for a unique way to enjoy the autumn spirit, this event promises fun for all ages."

Pre-registration for this event is required as space is limited; $10 per child with supervising adult complimentary. For more information and to register, please visit NorthPortFL.gov/PumpkinPlunge.
