Keeler Tavern Museum & History Center (KTM&HC) is hosting its 8th annual scarecrow contest. Individuals, families, groups, and businesses are invited to create a scarecrow to be displayed on Main Street during Fall in Love with Ridgefield October 16 – 18, 2020.
Voting will take place on the KTM&HC Facebook page from October 16th to October 31st. The scarecrow with the most "likes" by 11:59 PM on October 31 will receive a prize. (Note that there will be NO ballot voting this year following COVID-19 guidelines which caution against touching any surfaces.)
Scarecrow frames are available now for $25 each and can be picked up at KTM&HC's Visitor Center, Monday through Friday, 10 -3. Simply register at this link, then email info@keelertavernmuseum.org to schedule a time to safely pick up a frame. https://secure.lglforms.com/form_engine/s/mG-8vU3HUf7gVekjhlTY7Q
Finished scarecrows must be dropped off at the Visitor Center by Wednesday, October 14 at 4 p.m. KTM&HC will take photos of each entry prior to installing them on Main Street. The public can then vote for their favorite by liking the Keeler Tavern Museum & History Center Facebook page at www.facebook.com/keelertavernmuseum, and inviting friends and family to "like" your entry. Note that KTM&HC will create and upload the album with all scarecrow photos by October 16.
Get your creative juices flowing, pick up your wooden frame and entry form at KTM&HC Visitor Center, and take part in this super-fun community program! Good luck to all!
