Welcome to the 2009 Hayling Island Scarecrow Festival

This year the Festival will run from July 25th to August 8th with the Scarecrow Awards Ceremony mid way through at the annual Hayling Island Carnival on Saturday August 1st with entries are invited into the following categories Tableaux, Seaside, Topical, Countryside and Entertainment.

In addition to Awards in the above categories, we will hold an election during the Festival to find the most popular Scarecrow figure on the Island. Hundreds of Scarecrow "candidates" are expected take part in this contest which is bound to provide some surprising results as “The People’s Choice” is selected. Residents and Visitors will be able to vote for their personal favourite Scarecrows at voting stations set up across the Island during the Festival.

Budding Scarecrow makers will be able to practice their skills in a series of Workshops held over the weekend of June 13th and 14th. Entry Forms for the festival will be available in April, watch out for further announcements about this and other aspects of this hugely popular Festival.
