The Greater Keyeser, WI Pumpkin Weigh-Off is an event among neighbors who
live near DeForest, Wisconsin. It is not a sanctioned event, but a highly
accurate, hanging digital scale was provided for the event by Durline Scales
(Madison, WI). The 2000 weigh-off took place at the home of Mark McGinley
on Sunday, October 1, 2000.

Notes:
1. Peregrine also had a 565 (Est) that did not get weighed due to rot. 837
Thorson 99 X self.
2. First year grower.
3. First year growing for competition.
4. The McGinley 423 stopped growing early due to vine borers.
Seeds from the Peregrine 565 (est) were distributed to all attendees (many
had already sprouted). No more seeds are available. Only Peregrine and
McGinley had AG seeds with known genetics.
It was a fun afternoon for all, except that the Packers went down in defeat.
