Hartford Area Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Kate Carroll told WTKM News about this great event.

"This event is hosted by the Hartford Chamber, in conjunction with the Hartford Business Improvement District and it is on the same day and also working side-by-side with the Pink Pumpkin Run. The Pink Pumpkin Fest will have vendors and live music. We will also hold a couple of pumpkin races down the Rubicon this year as a fundraiser for the Hartford Riverwalk Holiday Lights."

                                            

There will be live music and market vendors.

 

The mini pumpkin race involves 504 of those pink mini pumpkins that will be racing down the Rubicon River. The business pumpkin race will involve larger decorated pumpkins racing down the Rubicon.
