Scarecrow Building Contest has begun

DEL NORTE – The Del Norte Chamber of Commerce announced the 2020 Scarecrow Bash. For those who do not know, the Scarecrow Bash is a community-wide event in which businesses and residents are asked to tap into their creative side and make a scarecrow that shows off their unique style.


Early registration began  Sept. 14 and ended Sept. 18 – late registrations are accepted but be warned that there will be less time for you to build your scarecrow. If you are late to register, make sure to do so by Oct. 2.


As soon as everyone is registered, maps can be accessed on the Chamber website and physical copies will be available at the front desk at High Valley Community Center.


 Scarecrow building will take place from Sept. 14 – Oct. 2. Voting begins Oct. 2 until Oct. 16. Now for the good stuff…prizes! The business winner will receive a $100 prize of the Chamber’s choosing.

Residential winners will be awarded 1st, 2nd and 3rd place prizes winning a $100 gift card, $50 gift card and $25 gift card respectively. Winners will be announced on Oct. 19 at the Chamber of Commerce’s open house located at the High Valley Community Center.


More information regarding that event will be on the Chamber’s website shortly. For more information or if questions arise, please do not hesitate to contact the Chamber. Happy scarecrow building, everyone!
