For the third time, the covered bridge at Memorial Park will be aglow with festive, spooky faces and designs tonight.

The third annual Fulton Parks and Recreation Department's Pumpkins in the Park begins at 6:30 p.m. Contestants need only bring their carved Jack-o'-lanterns to the park gazebo between 2-6 p.m. The pumpkins will be lit at 6:30 p.m. and left on display through Halloween.

Prizes will be awarded on scariest, most original and biggest pumpkin. The event is free to participants and spectators.
