On the website it states the festival has been canceled but the weighoff will still happen.

Does anyone have any details on the weighoff location, & Date?

Thank you.

From what I understand, nothing is set in stone, but Friday evening, September 25th is when. I'm assuming it will still be in the center of town. I'm sure Tim will post something when the details are finalized

I did not see Barnesville listed on the GPC site, will this be a GPC sanctioned event this year?

In addition every year I have ever been up there I have brought a Pumpkin and don't recall any Squash. Will the Squash be recognized in a separate catagory or just lumped in with the pumpkins?

I have a couple good sized squash and I am just trying to figure out where I am going to weigh them.

Thank you.

Yes, we spoke to Woody Lancaster. We will definitely be a GPC site.

We have been a proud member of the GPC since 2007.

We hope to get our information on the GPC site soon.

Covid19 has caused us a few delays this year.

Our weighoff will be held in the evening of Friday, September 25th in Barnesville, Ohio.
