Clarkston Community Church youth form a line to move thousands of pumpkins from a semi-truck to pallets on the church front lawn, Oct. 2. The annual Pumkin Patch, marking the start of the fall holiday season, is a fundraiser for the church Student Ministry. The pumpkins were grown and delivered from New Mexico, with corn stalks and straw bales from a local farmer. The students and their parents earn money toward trips and events by working in the pumpkin patch throughout the month of October. Photo by Phil Custodio
