Pumpkin vs. Watermelon War: A Fruitful Battle for the Ages

Embrace your foolish spirit in our annual Pumpkin vs. Watermelon War! This fun-filled combat match on the Chess Field is a beloved tradition marking the transition from summer to fall.

Choose your side, recruit supporters, and root for your favorite veg or fruit in this playful combat match. It’s a battle of the fruits, but regardless of the outcome, both sides claim victory in this hilarious and harmless war.

Make sure you come dressed in the colors of your side. Orange for Pumpkin, Red/Pink for Watermelon.
