Music, live bands, pumpkin weigh in contest, pumpkin recipe contest, pumpkin decorating contest, crowning of the Spring Hope Pumpkin queen. At 1:00pm the popular Spring Hope Pumpkin Festival parade begins. The parade is alway fun with cars, bands, dance teams, clowns and more.

<p>Are you a North Carolina mountains person or a North Carolina beaches person? We are lucky here in NC to have both with mountains in the west and beaches to the east. Both areas are very beautiful and have a lot to offer. But if you had to make a choose of just one, which would you prefer the NC mountains or the NC beaches!?</p>
<p>And if you want to tell us more, which mountain region, arer or town. Or which beach area or town?</p>
<p>And one other option if you want to let us know &#8211; why?</p>
