Each October, the Woman's Club of Rutherford presents Pumpkin People in the Park, with creative displays by businesses, non-profit organizations, and families in Rutherford in Lincoln Park. The park, right across from Borough Hall, is filled with vibrant displays celebrating autumn.

Every display features a hay bale and a sign bearing the name of the family, business, or nonprofit organization. Each participants donates to the Woman's Club to secure a spot. Those contributions enable the Woman's Club to continue supporting charitable causes.

Children and adults seem to enjoy strolling through the park to take a closer look at all of the fun scenes and artistry behind them. Visit Lincoln Park before October 23rd to enjoy Pumpkin People in the Park.

Pumpkin People in the Park is sponsored by Calhoun Mania Funeral Home and Compass Wealth Management. The hay bales were donated by BCB Bank.
