This pumpkin placed 3rd for weight and 2nd in painting contest at Rapid City, SD. It weighted 484 lbs and was grown by Doris. I am standing behind pumpkin which is being weighted as an exhibition pumpkin, ( it had been weighted at another contest.)Doris named this pumpkin the Swan as it was an ugly duckling as a young plant and turned into a bueatiful pumpkin after it was painted. This pumpkin was painted by renown Indian artist, Evan Flammond Sr, who is a Rosebud Sioux. If we have big pumpkins next year plan to take them to Rapid City and enter the contest and have them painted. Ladies especially like to look at this painted pumpkin. Hopefully Mr Flammond will consent to paint one of our pumpkins next year.
