Scarecrow Contest!!!

Main Street Fairmont is hosting a scarecrow contest in downtown Fairmont to celebrate the arrival of autumn. The contest is open to everyone including schools, church groups, and individuals although they must call Main Street Fairmont to register. Scarecrows must be constructed of durable materials that will survive at least one month in the elements and be made of inexpensive material in case of theft. The only requirement is that the scarecrows be appropriate for family viewing.

The scarecrows will be placed on preassigned lamp-posts with zip ties supplied by Main Street Fairmont on Friday, October 2 or Saturday, October 3, 2009. All scarecrows must be removed by November 1, 2009.

Visitors can vote for their favorite scarecrows at pre-assigned downtown shops and prizes will be awarded for first, second and third places.

For more information, please contact the Main Street Fairmont office at 366-0468 or email contact@mainstreetfairmont.org , Sandra@mainstreetfairmont.org or Alani@mainstreetfairmont.org.
