Rules & Guidelines

• To participate, entrants must register and have their scarecrows on display by Wednesday, October 28th at Noon. Judging will take place on Thursday, October 29th.

• All scarecrows must be built from scratch by the entrant. You can use any materials you like to build your scarecrow. There are no restrictions, with the exception that no commercial creations are allowed, including anything used for the face of the scarecrow.

• Creativity and originality – judges will be looking for scarecrows with that little bit extra. It may be the materials used, the way the scarecrow has been made and how it is displayed, or simply a fantastic idea that catches the judge’s eye.

• All scarecrows must be made and displayed in good taste. Any entrant designing their scarecrow to cause deliberate offense will be disqualified. All scarecrows must be absent of adult, political or religious themes.

• All scarecrows must be displayed at the front of your property and should be positioned so it is not necessary for anyone to access the property in order to view them.

• By entering the scarecrow competition, you are confirming that you accept these rules and agree that your address may be published on different formats so the community will be able to view the scarecrows. Pictures of the winning scarecrows will be posted on City of Rosemount social media accounts.
