Pumpkin Slaughter 2003
This years annual Pumpkin Slaughter had a small turn out, but needless to say SCSFFS isn't known for huge ones. It was a beautiful October day. Babler State Park was looking very fallish from the trees starting to loose their colorful leaves, to are friends that bats nestled tightly in the rafters of the Alta Shelter. It was the day that helped set the tone for this SCSFFS event. Special thanks goes to Marie and Wayne for cooking up all the food. There were 6 competitors in the pumkin carving competition; Marie Willbrand winner of "Best Use of Vegtables" award, Sean Ross winner of "Best Use of Natural Material" award, Joe Keethler winner of "Best Carving" and "Best Overall" awards, Breanna Keethler winner of "Most Disturbing" award, and Jaret Keethler winner of "It came from the Alta Shelter" award. Thanks goes to Christine Besher and Sean Sendlien for judging the pumpkins and creating categories.

After the awards were handed out and photo sessions ended it was time for the "Slaughter", pumkins were fired one by one at the stone wall of the Alta Shelter until all were destroyed.

Hayride specialist Sean Sendlien coordinated the ride through the winding roads of Babler strapped with his Ford Expedition and straw filled trailer, he led the group around Babler at a easy going speed of 20mph (kidding).

All and all it was a nice fall day with all the elements and a great time as usual.
See you all next year!
