Event Details: We are seeking enthusiastic Volunteers to help with pumpkin gutting and carving for our annual Pumpkin Glow event. Many children and families visit Kingwood to carve a pumpkin, and your assistance with gutting the pumpkins helps reduce messiness and ensures a more enjoyable experience for everyone. This also helps our staff manage the event more effectively as well.

What to Bring:

  • An apron (optional)
  • Wear clothes you don't mind getting dirty
  • Water bottle & snack for yourself

Your support is crucial in making this a fun and memorable event for our community. Once the pumpkins are carved, they will be displayed along the path for our Pumpkin Glow event, creating a magical experience for all our Guests!

Please fill out a Volunteer Application to become a registered Kingwood Volunteer!

Please reach out to the Kingwood Volunteer Coordinator!
