WHAT IS THE SCARECROW CONTEST?
The Midhurst Scarecrow Contest is an annual contest celebrating Midhurst's agricultural roots. Organized and hosted by the Midhurst Community Recreation Association, this contest has been a tradition of family fun and community spirit for over a decade. Residents and businesses alike take part each year by building and decorating a scarecrow for the entire neighbourhood to see. The Scarecrow Contest has become an international staple with people around the world checking out the entries online and voting for their favourites. So, what are you waiting for? Let's get building!
