Win prizes at free 'Pumpkin Hunt' all October at Elkhart Environmental Center

ELKHART, Ind. - Get the family out in nature this fall with the returning Pumpkin Hunt at the Elkhart Environmental Center this Halloween season.

Join the hunt along the trails throughout the month of October to search for pumpkins hidden along the paths.

The hunt will last through October 31, or until all pumpkins have been found.

Trails are open dawn to dusk daily, so come and search any time.

Organizers say there's a limit to one pumpkin per family, please.

This activity is FREE and there is no registration required.

Kids of all ages are welcome to participate.
