RULES AND GUIDELINES

The most important rule is…

Make sure you enjoy yourselves!!

They aren’t really many rules as to how you build or design your scarecrow – eg. Straw, papier Mache, reusing or recycling old materials etc.

All we ask is that the main component be straw, otherwise it wouldn’t be a scarecrow.

Please try to enter into this year’s theme of FILMS and please keep it polite and appropriate.

Anyone can enter our Groby Scarecrow Festival 2022
