Greetings Everyone

As a professional carver of pumpkin for decades I've called on the GPC and the groups when we had a tragic death in the family late in the game. Sadly Jim (orangeneck) lost his big one on Saturday. That perfect orange melon was all set to go with me to NYC. Andy Wolf is already on the hunt to save me once again.

Everyone I'm sure can feel for Jim. I haven't seen a guy like that since Billy Curmudgeon 7 years ago. I have 40 hours to sculpt this guy. After 20 years I finally have a chance at major media exposure! I really need a perfect pumpkin

900-1100lbs
Smooth shiny skinned
bright orange to red-orange
Shallow ribs
Orb shaped is ideal

I have $900 Approved for anyone who grew a Grumpkin and is close enough get it to the ship. If you have a candidate that's a little under or over I would still love to see your fruit!

I will talk to Liz Monday about Jim's misfortune, and what is the maximum budget is for the fruit.
