  Halloween is almost here and the South Gulf Beaches area of Pinellas County is gearing up for the fun holiday!

  One community-oriented event that is new this year is Pumpkins on the Porch.  Here’s more information about it.

  Tampa Bay Watch invites all members, volunteers, and residents of Tierra Verde to attend the 1st Annual Pumpkins on the Porch to be held at the Tampa Bay Watch Marine Center.

  This family event will feature snacks, bobbing for apples, pumpkin decorating, trick-or-treating around the facility, and the showing of It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!™  on the lawn.

  It takes place on October 30, 2009, from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Tampa Bay Watch Marine Center, located just outside the entrance to Ft. De Soto Park at 3000 Pinellas Bayway South in Tierra Verde, FL 33715.

  B.Y.O.P. (Bring Your Own Pumpkin) and plan to have a spooktacular good time! 

  There will be a limited supply of pumpkins available for sale.  Tampa Bay Watch will supply carving stencils and utensils, and plenty of candy! 

  Pumpkins graciously provided by Hydro Harvest Farms.
