Scarecrow Decorating Contest

🗓️ October 5, 2026 - October 31, 2026

About the Campaign:

The Scarecrows are back in town! It's time for our community to vote for their favorite scarecrow.

You'll find scarecrows attached to lamp posts, or hanging out in storefront windows and near business entrances all along downtown Main Street.

This annual event is hosted by Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce. The Chamber would like to thank all participating businesses for taking part and decorating downtown for the Fall season.

Now it's time for you to vote for your favorite. All the scarecrows are pictured in a column to the right. You VOTE for your favorite by clicking the Sign-up button and "Registering" for your favorite.

You can Vote/Register for up to three scarecrows.

The scarecrow with the most votes (e.g. number of registrants) will receive the traveling Scarecrow trophy, which will be announced on November 2.

The contest runs through October. Voting will close at midnight on October 31.
