SCARECROW CONTEST
(Hint: Click on the images)
Last’s year winner above - L.L. Stub Stewart State Park
Put your thinking caps on and come up with something creative to
impress the judges and the visitors of course.
You do not have to have a business in the downtown area. Your scarecrow can be displayed in a park or near a welcome sign, etc. Be creative! This is fun and is also a way to help decorate for Salmon Festival. Have your scarecrow out by 11 am on October 3, 2009.
Please let the Chamber of Commerce know that you will have a scarecrow to be judged, and its location. Judging will be at noon on October 3, and the winner announced just before the auction. The winner will receive a plaque to be displayed at their business for the full year until next year’s contest.
Just drop me an email or call leaving a message at 503-429-6081.
