2011 Pumpkin Patch Party at Westbrae

Come and watch Buki the Clown on Saturday, Oct. 22 at 2:30 p.m. (she recently performed at Ringling Brothers Circus - www.bukitheclown.com). The show is free but BRING YOUR WALLET! The Jefferson Elementary School PTA will be holding a bake sale - purchase a goodie and watch the show. 

If you’re ready to pump it up try the All-You-Can-Carry Pumpkin Challenge.   Hold as many pumpkins as you can at the register (5 seconds required) and they are yours (specialty pumpkins not included).  Bake Sale and All-you-can-carry hours: 11am-4pm.  All-you-can-carry price:  $25 adults; $12 children (10 years and under).

This year, when you buy a pumpkin at Westbrae, the proceeds will be donated to Jefferson Elementary School in Berkeley.  Cornell Elementary in Albany was the recipient of pumpkin patch proceeds last year and in the future we hope to support Marin and Ocean View Elementary Schools (one out of the four each year).

We can’t do it without you!  Prices range from $3-$20 and there are lots of pumpkins in our patch waiting for a Halloween home.
