Get Ready for a Cherry-Fueled Day of Fun at the National Cherry Pit-Spit Championship in Cromwell!

The quirky and beloved National Cherry Pit-Spit Championship is back this summer!

Whether you're a seasoned spitter or a first-timer, this is the perfect way to celebrate the season.

The goal is simple: see who can spit a cherry pit the furthest! With registrations opening at 11:00 am, and the competition kicking off at 11:30 am, everyone is invited to give it a go.

Entry is just $2 for three cherries, so there’s no reason not to join in on the fun.

While the Cherry Pit-Spit Championship is undoubtedly the main event, there’s plenty more to enjoy throughout the day.

Both for the young or simply young at heart, test your creative flair in the Colouring Competition and show off your artistic skills.

For those who love to get into the spirit of the event, don’t miss the “Best Cherry Fest Dressed” contest.

Dress up in your most vibrant, cherry-inspired outfit and you could win a prize for the most festive and creative look of the day.
