For those not in the know.... the competition has a few different types of Chunkers.
-Air Cannons
-Centrifugal
-Catapults
-Trebuchets
-Human Powered
-Torsion
Teams are going for distance.
Pumpkins that disintegrate before leaving the barrel do not count.

Andrea's right - this event is amazing. The winner last year shot their pumpkin
4483.51 feet. (Probably with an air cannon)
Last year a couple of MOE students took 2nd place wiith their school machine in the youth trebuchet division, flinging their pumpkin 694.06 feet.
