The Frost on the Pumpkin Race consists of three events that participants can choose to participate in :

Frost on The Pumpkin is a nonprofit organization that donates its
proceeds to disabled children in the area to attend Camp Donna,
a summer camp designed specifically for special-needs children.
Frost On The Pumpkin also awards a college scholarship fund to
various local communities for students who are planning to enter
the field of Special Education.
Since its inauguration, the race has become a South River
tradition occurring on the last Sunday of the month of October.
The racecourse winds through the streets and neighborhoods of
South River.
