Scarecrows have been popping up on the Freestone County Courthouse Square in time for the Fourth Annual Scarecrow Contest, sponsored by Fairfield Chamber of Commerce. 

  Families, clubs, businesses and more have been assigned one of the lampposts for their scarecrow.    Each entry is numbered.

  Now, it is up to the community to vote for their favorites.

  Cast a ballot in person from Tuesday, October 15th to Friday, October 18th at one of several Fairfield businesses:  Kennedy’s Korner, Accessories, Etc., HWY 84 Boutique, Armadillo Emporium, Brenda’s Closet, or Creations Flowers & Gifts.

  Voting will also take place on the Chamber’s Facebook page.  Simply “like” your favorite picture. 

  Winners and awards will be announced on October 19th at 1:00 p.m. during Fairfield Fest on the Square.

  For more information, contact the Fairfield Chamber of Commerce at 903-389-5792 or stop by their office at 900 W. Commerce.
