Scarecrow contest deadline

Thursday, October 6, 2011

Tomorrow is the last day to enter the Scarecrow contest in Tomahawk, with a chance to win cash prizes.

The annual Fall Family Festival and launch of that Scarecrow Contest was held this past Saturday. There were nearly 100 children and their families attending the event, with around 25 scarecrows already entered into the first annual contest.

Entries will be accepted until 5pm tomorrow, and may be submitted by any individual or team, including non-profits, businesses, classrooms or families.

The scarecrows will be displayed throughout the Main Street district in October. The public is invited to vote in the contest by placing $1 with each ballot, at participating downtown merchants. There is $325 worth of cash and "Main Street Money" going to the top winners. Judging will take place on October 29, with the winner announced right here on the Morning Show November 2.
