WHAT IS THE SCARECROW CONTEST?
The Midhurst Scarecrow Contest is an annual contest celebrating Midhurst's agricultural roots. Organized and hosted by the Midhurst Community Recreation Association, this contest has been a tradition of family fun and community spirit for over a decade. Residents and businesses alike take part each year by building and decorating a scarecrow for the entire neighbourhood to see.
