KEARSLEY Scarecrow Festival is seeking entrants for its fourth annual event next month.

The event is organised by residents who volunteer and all proceeds go straight back into the community.

There will be entertainment and refreshments available at various locations.

Donations from previous years have gone towards public access defibrillators, community benches and Kearsley in Bloom.

The organisers particularly want churches, local businesses and community groups to enter a scarecrow in the event, which takes place on September 22 and 23. To enter email kearsleyscarecrowfestival@hotmail.com
