STILLWATER - Some massive pumpkins will be in Stillwater this weekend for the annual "Stillwater Harvest Fest".

There's a lot of events happening both tomorrow (Saturday) and Sunday, but the main event is the Giant Pumpkin Weigh-Off.

Spokesman - and St. Cloud native - Cory Buettner says about 35-40 pumpkins are expected to be entered in the competition.

Buettner says they're hoping for some record-breaking pumpkins.

Stillwater got the World Record pumpkin in 2010, but that's broken since then.

Buettner says the first-place prize is $5,000. And, there's a total of $13,000 in prize money on the line this weekend.

They expect to know the winner by 4:00 p.m. on Saturday.

Richmond's Scott Steil is among this year's competitors.
