The Ripon Chamber of Commerce is gearing up for the 11th annual Scarecrow Fest.

“Show us your cutest, silliest, most creative scarecrow displays,” said the Chamber to local businesses, schools, and families.

They’re all invited to take part in the fall fun of building and decorating scarecrows and displaying them outside of their home or place of business.

First, second, and third place entries will be judged on “most likes,” as posted on Ripon Chamber of Commerce Facebook page.

Photo entries must be submitted by Friday, Oct. 4, to be included in the voting.

All scarecrows must remain on display through Oct. 31, Halloween – voting ends that day at noon.

“We will also award a top prize in the themed category ‘Happy Haunts.’ This winner will be selected by a judge,” according to the Chamber.
