Scarecrows should be displayed in an arc facing the road on the village green (near the beacon)

Scarecrows must have the generic A4 ‘entry slip’ pinned to their front (like a runner in a race). Download below.
Scarecrows will be judged in their place on the village green on Sunday 20 September at 1pm (you are invited to attend), immediately following a BBQ will be served at the Village Hall when the winning entries will be announced
Scarecrows should be removed from the village green promptly after the BBQ - please be prepared to take your scarecrow home with you
