The Candor Fall Festival would not be complete without our Annual Scarecrow Contest! There is NO entry fee. Just fill out the entry form and get it to the Candor Chamber of Commerce by Saturday, September 28, 2024. Youth groups, classrooms, service clubs, organizations, families, individuals and businesses are invited to participate. Scarecrows must be absent of adult or political themes. All scarecrows must be in good taste and appropriate for viewing by the public. Any scarecrow deemed inappropriate or in bad taste will not be entered into the contest. All scarecrows must be displayed within the Town of Candor.

Judging will be based on: Originality/Creativity, Design, and Workmanship. Prizes awarded for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places.

Groups: Make your scarecrow a group project: school, church, office, club, scout troop, community, business, etc. Put on your thinking caps to conjure up a winner! Great project for troops or camps!

Scarecrows must be on display by Monday, October 1, 2024 to qualify for judging. Winners will be announced on Saturday, October 12. Photos of and location of all scarecrows will be posted online on the Candor Chamber’s webpage and on our Fall Festival Facebook page.
