What a Great Way To Win Money For Your Club

Book Family Farm Scarecrow Contest  Sept. 30, Oct. 1st set up!

Contest Description

The Book Family Farm & Old Fashioned Pumpkin Patch is all about the family farm, harvest & bringing the community together. We are inviting you or your group to join us by building a scarecrow or group of scarecrows to share with the community when they visit the farm. The scarecrows must be positive and up-lifting! Very young children visit our farm and we ask that there be no scary or grotesque displays. (please no witches, goblins, monsters, ghosts, etc.) The scarecrow displays will stay up for the entire month of October, so strong construction is encouraged. The judges will look at theme, creativity, strong construction & use of natural materials.
