Abstract:
Looking for something to do on an October weekend? Come to Hayesville in Clay County for the annual Punkin Chunkin Festival. The object to see how far you can toss a pumpkin and there is no restriction on the type of device used--hand-built catapults, medieval-style trebuchets, even air cannons. The event originated in Bridgeville, Delaware in 1986, the Hayesville one four years ago.
