This year our Annual Scarecrow Competition, which is part of our Tailgate Festival, features a theme of local non-profits. Our shops have teamed up with these organizations to create a scarecrow that reflects the non-profit. We need your help to make the event a success.

Here's how you can be part of the fun and fundraising:

• Check out the photos below or come to Kitchen Kettle Village Friday, 9/20-Saturday, 9/28 to see the scarrecrows in person. Experience the Tailgate Festival when vsiiting 9/20 and 9/21.

• Cast your vote by donating for your favorite scarecrow or non-profit organization by clicking the link below the photo. Every dollar counts as one vote. Vote as many times and as often as you like. Proceeds go directly to the non-profit organizations.

• Kitchen Kettle Village will match up to $1,000 of the scarecrow raising the most money during the voting period of 9/20-9/28/24.

• Check our Facebook page @kitchenkettlevillage to see who wins the competition the week of 9/30/24.

Thanks for your support and participation of these local non-profits who make our community a better place to work, live and play.

Watch for all the 2024 scarecrow pictures being posted on 9/19 and remember to vote!
