Take part in this year’s scarecrow contest in Stony Brook Village

Fall is almost here, and so is the Ward Melville Heritage Organization’s Annual Scarecrow Competition! This will be the 34th year that the spooky and silly six-foot creations will adorn the pathways of picturesque Stony Brook Village Center for visitors to enjoy while they shop.

Registration is currently underway to craft and display a one-of-a-kind scarecrow masterpiece. The competition is open to everyone—whether you’re part of a Girl or Boy Scout troop, a local business, a family, or an individual. 

You can pick up a registration form at any of the shops in Stony Brook Village, or visit wmho.org or stonybrookvillage.com to download the form. Return the completed registration form with the entry fee of $30 by Sept. 23.

The public will vote for their favorite scarecrows by picking up a ballot at any of the shops and restaurants at the Stony Brook Village Center from Sept. 30 to Oct. 25 with exciting cash prizes up for grabs. Winners will be announced during the WMHO’s Halloween Festival on Oct. 31.
