Had a lovely afternoon going round village I live in as we are having a scarecrow festival - its the 2nd one and this year there are over 60 displays - both
schools , churches, nurseries and shops have joined in along with many private ones its fantastic. There is a disco dome for the kids this evening at the
community centre and tomorrow all the schools and church hall are open for refreshments and my daughters school is having its fayre ( made some cards for them
to sell as not able to go because of risk of infection!) Hope the weather holds out for them

Sounds wonderful and really original, there is obviously great community spirit in your village. We have a lot of 'field days' here in Ireland which
generally get a good turn out, its one of the things I like about living here as when I lived in Medway people kept very much to themselves.
It's lovely when people pull together, Tina. |

We had a scarecrow festival at our Church last month. The theme was Nursery Rhymes, and it was really good.

We have had a scarecrow weekend for quite a few years, choosing different themes each year. this year they are trying to encourage people to change it to a
scrap sculpture.Some of the scarecrows are usually hilarious ie hanging out bedroom windows with trousers down. Ali x

Do you live in Tetney Ali? We used to visit the Scarecrow festival there when we lived in Louth - we always enjoyed it,
it was great fun.

No Dawn, but Tetney is only about 20 miles away. I think quite a few villages in Yorkshire do scarecrow weekends too,Kettlewell does I think. Ali x
