𝘞𝘦’𝘳𝘦 𝘚𝘮𝘢𝘴𝘩 𝘐𝘯𝘵𝘰 𝘍𝘢𝘭𝘭… 𝘓𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺!! 💥🎃
We are hosting our annual “𝗣𝘂𝗺𝗽𝗸𝗶𝗻 𝗦𝗺𝗮𝘀𝗵” and would love to have you join us! Bring the family, bring your friends, and bring those pumpkins that have officially seen better days! 😂🎃
𝗪𝗛𝗬 𝗦𝗠𝗔𝗦𝗛?♻️
Once Halloween is over, your pumpkin doesn’t have to become garbage! Pumpkins are organic material that can be composted and turned into something useful for the earth.
𝗛𝗢𝗪 𝗗𝗢𝗘𝗦 𝗜𝗧 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗞?🔨
You bring your pumpkins, we will have a large tarp and sturdy wooden stumps set up for smashing stations. Not into the smashing? No problem! You can toss your pumpkin directly into the on-site dumpster, where all of the pumpkin pieces will be collected for composting
𝗠𝗘𝗘𝗧 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗟𝗢𝗖𝗔𝗟 𝗙𝗜𝗥𝗘𝗙𝗜𝗚𝗛𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗦! 🚒🔥
Our friends at East Dundee Fire District and Barrington Countryside Fire Protection District will be joining us with in-service fire engines on display and ready for any curious minds who want to climb aboard and take a tour! It’s also a great opportunity to meet, chat with, and say hello to some of the local firefighters who help keep our community safe every day!

Gobberts will be back again this year, selling those delicious apple cider donuts and hot cider to keep everyone fueled and ready to smash!
