🎃 A HUGE THANK YOU! 🎃

That's a wrap on this year's Birstall Halloween Scarecrow Trail! 👻

We just want to say a massive thank you to everyone who has taken part this year. It's been absolutely amazing seeing so many families and children out and about, enjoying the hunt, having fun and bringing our community together. ❤️

A special thank you also goes to everyone who put so much time, effort and creativity into making their own scarecrows. You've all done an incredible job, and it's your enthusiasm that makes this event so special!

🎃 DON'T FORGET! The children still have until the end of next week, Sunday 8th November, to complete their maps, finish their scarecrow drawings on the back and hand them in for a chance to win our Halloween hamper! 🎁

We're already looking forward to next year, and let's just say we've got another little plan up our sleeves for our 3rd Birstall Halloween Scarecrow Trail! 😉 Let's make it even bigger and better!

So, here are this year's scarecrows! Unfortunately, we're missing numbers 10 and 16, but we'd love you to take a look through the photos and VOTE FOR YOUR FAVOURITE by liking the individual scarecrow photo.

Let's see which scarecrow takes the crown this year! 🏆

Thank you once again, Birstall. You really are what makes our community so special! ❤️🎃

🎃 A little reminder for our Birstall Halloween Scarecrow Hunt! 👻

If you can't find a scarecrow or haven't managed to visit them all, don't worry! 🧡

Please cross out number "10" on your maps, unfortunately they haven't had the time to complete their scarecrow

You can still hand your maps in, even if they aren't fully completed.

It's all about having fun, getting out and about, and enjoying the Halloween half term! 🕸️

Just do your best, and don't forget to draw your own scarecrow on the back of your map for a chance to win our Halloween Hamper! 🎃🧙‍♀️
