20th June – 4th July
All around Lymm.

Scarecrow trail maps will be available from the Festival box-office,
the Library and several other outlets.

Wurzil Gummidge has come to Lymm this summer and, hopefully, will be meeting a crowd of his friends. Having already made an appearance in many rural towns and villages throughout Britain, the Scarecrow community will be given temporary lodgings by the generous citizens of Lymm, who, it is hoped, will rise to the challenge of providing the best possible settings.

This is an opportunity for all the community to demonstrate their imagination and flair by creating new members of the scarecrow family, - characters of every description, (unless deemed offensive) and involved in all sorts of activities. They might be a character from fiction (e.g. Darth Vader, Goldilocks, Spiderman), working persons (e.g. a milkman, window-cleaner, builder) or characters portrayed in amusing situations. The more ‘off-the-wall’, the better!

Join the fun, and help make an entertaining family event, where you can create your own member of the scarecrow family and also enjoy visiting all the others. You can vote for your favourite and the most popular will receive a prize. Pick up a registration form, with handy hints on how to construct your scarecrow, from Lymm Library, shops and pubs in Lymm, or contact Pam Hunter on 01925 758370
