Snellville Scarecrow Contest 2026

How will this work? You create a scarecrow and put it on display outside your business, school, church, home or club. We’ll make sure that there is a map of all locations where Scarecrows are on display for voting. Patrons will be encouraged to visit your location and vote on who has the BEST SCARECROW in Snellville. Contest is available to everyone in Snellville. The deadline to enter is September 11, 2026 to ensure your scarecrow is on the map. Voting will run online from October 5 through October 23 at 10 p.m. You will bring your scarecrow to the Snellville FALL FESTIVAL on the Towne Green on October 23 for display. Contest winners will be announced at 3:45 p.m. during the Fall Festival and then your scarecrows will be auctioned off to the highest bidder with bids starting at $10. Scarecrows need to be able to stand on their own; delivery is to be made to the designated spot left of the stage on the Towne Green on Saturday, October 23 by 10 a.m. Please include a 3.x 5 card clearly marked with the scarecrow’s name, your name and business information. The top three scarecrows will be presented a trophy and cash prizes (lst-$100, 2nd- $75 and 3rd- $50) and also receive recognition in our Winter Snellville Spirit Magazine, ExperienceSnellville.com and our Facebook page. The winning scarecrow will be judged on creativity, overall presentation. BE CREATIVE AND HAVE FUN! All proceeds from the auction will benefit the Southeast Gwinnett Food Co-op.
