Pumpkin Festival 2019


And the pumpkins are off! What another fantastic Pumpkin Festival with over 2000 people taking part! This year we teamed up with GlasGLOW to take away any leftover pumpkins which will be part of their Pumpkin Patch display and then composted- a big thank you to ‘Pumpkin Pat’ who picked them up.

We did a community call out to help support our Spooky Walk and what a response we got – Castlemilk really does come together to make things happen. Below are those who came along and helped, without you all this event would not be able to the size and scale that it is. A huge huge thank you, we really do appreciate it!
