For the past 12 years the Pumpkin Festival volunteers have put in countless hours to ensure the success of this wonderful FREE family festival.  As always, we encourage everyone to get involved!  There are plenty of ways in which you can volunteer: maybe you would like to assist us by growing pumpkins, carving pumpkins, helping with set-up or take-down activities or working at a Pumpkin Log-In Booth ... the list of volunteer opportunities goes on and on! If you would like to help, please contact us at
bid@frontiernet.net or call Pegi LoPresti at the Norwich Business Improvement District Office at 607.336.1811.  Getting new people involved will ensure the Norwich Pumpkin Festival continues for many years to come.

There are six Pumpkin Festival sub-committees to get involved in, they are:

  • Sponsor & Public Relations Committee
