DIY Scarecrow Day
11am-6pm
Brother’s Field
The suburb’s biggest homage to scarecrow-making returns again to Historic Downtown Long Grove. Do It Yourself Scarecrow Day is an afternoon dedicated to harvesting charm and family fun. Scarecrow engineers are invited to reserve a time to build their own custom scarecrow modeled after any character or idea they can create. We encourage participants to plan ahead, gather clothing and accessories and register in advance. A $10 registration fee per scarecrow earns each group of builders a wood base, hay for stuffing, and building guidance from our team of volunteers.
