SHREVEPORT, LA (KSLA) -

The 21st Annual Pumpkin Shine on Line drew hundreds of area residents to the trails around Betty Virginia Park Wednesday to see nearly 1,000 jack-o-lanterns.

The annual event, sponsored by Southfield School and Shreveport Public Assembly & Recreation, allows people to bring their jack-o-lanterns to the park to be seen and judged. Prizes were awarded for the best jack-o-lantern, and all participants received a Pumpkin Shine ribbon.

Visitors got to see a variety of pumpkins carved by children, school classes, families and artists. Area school bands and choirs provided entertainment.
