 County Fair:  Scarecrow Contest 2010

Compete in the second annual Scarecrow Contest!

Anyone can enter; individuals, groups, businesses and non-profit organizations. This is a great opportunity to promote your school, business, organization, or yourself.

There are two categories: Traditional and Whimsical. Scarecrows in the traditional category are expected to be like the ones we've seen for generations doing their job in fields and gardens. They should be created from traditional materials and be ready to stick outside and start scaring crows. Whimsical scarecrows, on the other hand, can be one or more characters made of any material. They might even be too fussy to step one foot outside themselves, if they have a foot!

There will be three prizes; first will be valued at $25.00, second will be valued at $15.00, and third will be valued at $10.00. But it's not about the prizes, it's about fun and having the opportunity to shine in your community.
