We are looking for our 2017 Rookie of the year. To qualify for this award one needs to have been a first year grower never to have entered a pumpkin before in a GPC Weigh Off. This grower must have cared for their pumpkin the entire season.

Please let us know the weight and the Growers name.

Thank You

GPC Committee
