WHO: Marblehead Recreation & Parks Department
WHAT: Calling ALL Scarecrow Entries
WHEN: Now through Oct. 12
WHY: Marblehead Recreation & Parks is calling all scarecrow entries for the town’s Fourth Annual Scarecrow Stroll on Oct. 14.
Scarecrow entry is FREE! All families, organizations, and businesses welcome!
Last year, Scarecrow Stroll drew more than 1,000 local children and families who trick-or-treated through a path of more than 60 festive scarecrow creations! Prizes were awarded across the board — first, second, third place for best scouts, best business, best organization, and best family/individual scarecrow display.
Scarecrow Stroll is a great way to spread the word about your local business or organization. Organizations can display their signage, QR codes for newsletters, or any other creative ads alongside their scarecrow for free!
Businesses, organizations and families, are welcome to enter the contest through Oct. 12: https://mhdrec.wufoo.com/forms/scarecrow-contest-entry-form-2023/.
