2015 Scarecrow Trail - "Heroes & Villains"

What a successful sunny scarecrow week we had - our most successful yet. We had more scarecrows, sold more maps and raised more funds than we've ever made before!  The total raised  was an amazing £1461 - to be shared between Westwood Nursery and Westwood with Iford School.

Could you name all 35 scarecrows?  There were some really tricky ones this year...
A huge thank you to all of our scarecrow makers - clearly a lot of thought and effort was put into the making of each and every one.

The votes have been counted for the best scarecrow, and the winner is:

Maleficent  - made by the Augusztinyi family

2nd -  Smaug the dragon & Bilbo Baggins
3rd - Fantastic Mr. Fox
4th -  Popeye
5th -  Minecraft  Creeper
We must also say a huge thanks to Lindsey, Ray, Rita and the team at Costcutters for selling the trail maps  so enthusiastically as always.

Thanks also to Westwood Social Club for the use of their car park throughout the trail week.

And finally, thanks to the following for kindly donating prizes:
