2017 SCARECROW TRAIL - "Family Films"
Another brilliant scarecrow week in Westwood! The weather was kind, the scarecrows were superb as ever, and our trail goers really seemed to enjoy this event. As usual, we had something for everyone - some timeless classics such as Alice in Wonderland and the Wizard of Oz, some 80s classics in Big and Back to the Future, and some more recent favourites with Shrek, and the Minions. We broke the £2,000 barrier this year with a final fundraising total of £2,133 to be shared between Westwood with Iford School and Westwood Nursery.
We had some tricky ones again this year, could you name them all?
