Lou Ann Scott and Diane Bartley, the current chairs (Lou Ann for 20 years!), are looking for people to work with them this year and to step up as Pumpkin Patch chairs for next year. Or will this be our last Pumpkin Patch?

Volunteer Schedule

Our Pumpkin Patch is open throughout the month and we need volunteers to run the Patch every day. There is no need to lift pumpkins at this beloved community event. We just need friendly faces. Please consider signing up for 2 (or more) hour shifts. Maybe even the same shift each week. Here's the link to volunteer to work at The Patch. To sign up, put a checkmark in the time(s) you can volunteer, click the “submit and sign up” button, add your name (email & phone are optional), and click on the “sign up now” button. It’s so easy! (We are using the free version, so you will see some ads.) If you add your email address when signing up for a shift, you will automatically receive a reminder email a couple of days before your shift. If you want to change a time you signed up for, you can create a sign up account and edit it yourself or contact Pam in the office or Diane Bartley.

This is our largest fundraiser and in a year when many of our fundraisers have been cancelled, it's even more important. If you’ve never worked The Patch, volunteer with someone else to get on-the-job-training, or check with Diane or the office. Diane is happy to answer any questions you might have at 412-266-6113.

Free for the Taking

We have large bags of straw (about 10) free to a good home. Please contact the office or Diane Bartley to claim them.

Plastic Bags Needed

The Pumpkin Patch needs your used plastic bags (like Giant Eagle grocery bags). Please bring them to The Patch.
