KINGMAN – Kingman Parks & Recreation is offering two sessions of Bobbing for Pumpkins on Saturday, Oct. 19. “Bobbing for Pumpkins” provides a playful and entertaining way to celebrate the autumn season. It’s especially popular among children and families. It adds a touch of fall spirit to gatherings and often results to laughter and cheers from the spectators. Just be sure to have towels nearby, as participants swim to pick out their pumpkin in the pool.

You will get wet during this delightful fall activity!
