The Latest Stories For You From Salem Reporter
Good morning, Salem.
Tomorrow is the last Salem Saturday Market of the season, and Center 50+ is bringing a 20-foot track for competitive pumpkin races.
Anyone is welcome to grab a free pumpkin, gourd or spud and add provided axels, wheels and spooky decorations before testing the speed of their creation against other participants.
The market is at 865 Marion St. N.E., and the activity will be there from 10 a.m.to 2 p.m.
It’ll be run by the same crew who brought zucchini races to the market, which you can read about here.
