The name, Fishing for Pumpkins, comes from their pumpkin patch game, where you can win a free pumpkin to paint or carve.
“We offer events like this just to offer public enjoyment,” Linskey said. “We want people to come to Giant Springs State Park with something extra to do.”
Partners for the event include the Great Falls Public Library and the Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center.
“This is carnival style, so it's looking to get kids engaged with plenty of activities,” Linskey said.
