How We Can All Best Enjoy the GRIMSBY GLOWS Pumpkin Parade This Year

Accessible Parking: Grimsby Glows offers limited accessible parking in the lot off Elm Street beside the pool. This space will be marshaled and those with Accessibility/Volunteer stickers will be prioritized for this space.

Jack-o’-lantern Drop-Off: To ensure your pumpkins are proudly displayed on event night (or will be composted), drop them off at the pool parking lot between 8AM and 4PM on November

1. Please consider the pathway to be a two-way street and mind the arrows drawn on the pathway. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that any jack-o-lanterns delivered after 4:00PM will be placed in the parade.

Painted Pumpkins are welcome: If you are painting your pumpkin, please make sure the paint will not run if it rains or is dewy. We are an outdoor event only.

Connect with Event Marshals: If you have any issues or need assistance, please do not hesitate to connect with one of our event marshals who will be wearing safety vests with the Grimsby Glows logo. The marshals are here to help everyone enjoy the event and they may direct the flow of traffic along the pathway.

Respect for All: Treat everyone with kindness and respect. We’re all here to celebrate and have fun together.

Pumpkin Carving Contest: If you'd like to participate in the jack-o-lantern carving contest, make sure to let us know during drop off so we can put it in the right spot. This year's categories include: Spookiest, Funniest, Most Unique, Best Overall and Little Goblins' Masterpieces (for children 10 and under) and Vibrant Visions: Painted Pumpkins. We can't wait to see your creative designs!

Capture the Memories: Enjoy the fantastic pumpkin displays and feel free to take selfies at the stations, photos, and share your magical moments with #GrimsbyGlows2024.

Respect the Inflatables/Fall Setups/Pumpkins on Display: Please refrain from stepping on, hitting or damaging any holiday inflatables and fall displays along the parade route and within Coronation Park. Please keep all pumpkins where they have been placed on the path and within the park. Please be cognizant of the cords that hold up the inflatables. Let's keep the festive spirit alive!

Share the Pathway: We are anticipating another crowded night (woohoo!), so be considerate of fellow attendees. Share the pathway and help create a harmonious atmosphere for all.
General Parking: Find the various town and street parking available around Coronation Park on the Parking Map. Please avoid the vendors’ parking lots so they may continue to conduct their business, while you enjoy the Glow!!

Have Fun and Enjoy the Glow: Take photos, videos and stop to admire all the pumpkins carved by our incredible community!
Thank you for being part of our Grimsby Glows Pumpkin Parade. Your cooperation ensures a memorable and enjoyable experience for all. We can't wait to see everyone!

Gardeners of Burlington presents guest speakerCatherine McGill: “When the Ground gets Lower: aging and gardening”. Please come and join a friendly group of amateur gardeners interested in learning more about all aspects of gardening.

This talk will focus on the problems of physically aging as a gardener- something all gardeners can relate to; however, the discussion will be valuable and applicable to gardeners of all ages. Based on personal experience of over 30 years, Catherine will focus on gardening tips and tricks for seniors, how to work safer, getting the garden to work better for you, and tools that will help you to work more effectively.

Catherine McGill, after a two decade-long career as a professional Chef, Blacksmith, Horse Trainer, and Riding Instructor, but her passion for gardening led her to create her own garden maintenance company. With over forty years in the business, she is a highly experienced gardener with many senior clients.  Her horticultural knowledge extends to being a Horticultural and Design judge.  Catherine is also very active as a volunteer in the field of gardening having been the OHA Director of District 6 and was a Board member Representative for the OHA Southwest region.   She continues to volunteer as an administrator on gardening Facebook pages, for GardenOntario, District 6 and the Haldimand Horticultural Society.  Her motto in life is:  if you can’t see the humour in what you are doing,  then why are you doing it?
