*By Daily Press staff*

It will be a scary bake sale this week at the Canyon Charter School. The school’s ninth annual pumpkin patch and bake sale will be held on Thursday and Friday. Ghosts, goblins and The Great Pumpkin will be there to haunt the event.

More than 500 pumpkins of all shapes and sizes donated by two Santa Monica families will be for sale. Prices will be categorized by small, medium and large. There will be a contest for students and shoppers to guess the size of an enormous pumpkin and the winner will get to take it home. Purchases, including the spooky delicious array of home-baked goods, are tax deductible because proceeds benefit the school’s beautification committee.

The sale on Thursday will run from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. and Friday from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. The school is located at 421 Entrada Dr.

For more information contact Canyon Charter School at (310) 454-7510, Debbie Alexander at (310) 454-2566 or Marla Gardner at (310) 393-8334.
