If Jill could invite anyone to the Pumpkin show she would like to invite her grandpa. He looks forward to it every year and has attended it ever since he was little. He always enjoys watching the parade every night and seeing all of the festivities.

Her favorite memory of Pumpkin Show is when she was chosen to represent her elementary school in the Little Miss Pumpkin Show contest. She was very excited that day not only to ride through the parade, but it also happened to be her seventh birthday.
