2023 SCARECROW TRAIL - "Cartoon Capers"​

Picture
​WHEN?
This year's trail will run every day during the   May Half Term     week from   Saturday 27th May to Sunday 4th June 2023.

WHERE?
The trail will start and finish at   Westwood Stores     (Tynings Way, BA15 2BU). You can purchase your trail maps from the shop for   £5.00    each. The trail route (1.5-2 miles long) will take you on a gentle stroll around the village of Westwood, along a family friendly route. There is a small section that crosses a field, but this can be avoided if you wish. The rest is along footpaths and residential streets.

Parking  is available  at   Westwood Social Club   (Lower Westwood, BA15 2AP) - approximately 200m from the start of the trail.

HOW?
Follow the map around the village to find the scarecrows. For each scarecrow you find, take a good look and try to identify which cartoon character the scarecrow is depicting.   Write the answer for each scarecrow on the trail map sheet.   Once you've completed the trail, write your contact details on the trail map and return it to the village shop.  We will draw our prizes winners from all entries which have attempted to guess each scarecrow correctly - it's the taking part that counts so don't worry if you don't get every single one right!
​
WHY?
It's great fun and at the same time will raise valuable funds for our village primary school.   The trail is being organised by and in aid of Friends of Westwood School   So please save the date!    To keep up with all the latest news, follow us on social media Facebook or Instagram.
