Come and make pumpkin donuts and other pumpkin-based delicacies. Experience live music and face painting as well as the classic activities like archery and scout skills!
 
At New England Base Camp in Milton!

The cost of the event for the day for youth is $30, and Cub Scouts with the Adventure Card get 20% discounts! Youth participants go home with a pumpkin, a patch, prizes, a smile, and everyone goes home with great memories. Adults and parents are encouraged to participate.
