“It’s a great team-building event for the office,” says Martin Brix, owner of Lexington Vacuum. “Everyone in the office has fun putting scarecrows together from old vacuum parts, and I should add, it gives us some great advertising.”
Scarecrows will be on display at Albany's Westgate Plaza, Hannaford Plaza, and ShopRite Plaza to help herald autumn and decorate the district. This year’s contest will take place October 12-29, 2012. Entry forms and contest fee of $20.00 is due by Friday October 5, 2012.
Scarecrows must be decorated by Friday, October 12, 2012 so they can be installed at the west end. Voting will close October 29, and winners will be announced shortly afterwards. Winners will receive a catered lunch for the whole crew from your choice of several district restaurants.
