Community Scarecrow Contest & Display
September 24, 2024 at 5:18 p.m.
AKRON – Help decorate Akron’s Downtown Park. Individuals, families, schools, businesses and organizations are invited to enter their handmade scarecrow for display.
There are two categories to choose from: traditional and themed. This is a family-friendly event; therefore, no gruesome or horrific entries will be permitted. Pick up a complete list of rules by stopping by Akron Carnegie Public Library.
Cash prizes for first-, second- and third-places in each category, as well as Judge’s Pick and People’s Choice will be awarded. Displays will be up by Oct. 14 and voting will run through Oct. 28. You may vote for your favorite scarecrows once a day at the Akron Carnegie Public Library.
Sponsorship donations are still needed for prizes. Donations can be mailed to the Akron Public Library, P.O. Box 428, Akron, IN 46910.
