17 Sep Minot Parks Announces 2025 Dates for Annual Pumpkin Walk
Minot, ND — The Minot Park District is excited to announce the 2025 dates for the annual Pumpkin
Walk at Woodland Trail. This year’s festivities will take place from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm on Friday,
October 10, and Saturday, October 11.
The Pumpkin Walk is a free, family-friendly event celebrating the fall season with multiple food trucks
and thousands of carved pumpkins lighting the trail.
This community favorite would not be possible without the generous support of the Minot community
and our sponsor, JLG Architects. “JLG is thrilled to sponsor the Minot Park District’s Pumpkin Walk!
We love supporting our communities, and there’s no better way to help our community thrive than
bringing people together outdoors. My family is excited to walk Woodland Trail and admire the
creative pumpkins and efforts of businesses and organizations from across the community,” said
Katelyn Crider, Project Manager, JLG Architects.
Pumpkin pledges have surpassed every previous goal set, and this year’s target is the largest yet: 2,000
pumpkins! Minot Parks is currently accepting pledges from individuals and local businesses. Pledging
10 or more pumpkins includes signage at your display, with lights and setup provided by Minot Parks.
To make a pledge, contact Bailey at bailey@minotparks.com or call the Minot Parks office at (701)
857-4136.
Guests are asked to park at the Dakota Bark Park (705 Highway 83 Bypass W) and follow the walking
path to Woodland Trail. Additional lighting will be in place along the route to the entrance. The
Woodland Trail parking lot will be reserved for handicap-accessible parking. Visitors are encouraged
to dress warmly and bring flashlights.
