Scarecrow Convention – Stone County Mississippi

Start building your Fall-Themed Scarecrow Displays and show them off all over town!

Businesses, churches, families, individuals, schools, and organizations are invited to display scarecrows in front of their buildings, homes, in their neighborhoods, and throughout the City of Wiggins. The following rules are solely for those who wish to participate in the judged competition; however, we encourage everyone throughout Stone County to show off their scarecrow displays.

To participate in the judging!

Register your Scarecrow Display at stonecounty.com. Registration opens on September 1st and closes on September 30th at midnight.

The deadline to register is September 30th.

Your scarecrow display must be completed by the registration deadline to participate in the judged competition.

The judged competition is limited to the City of Wiggins. If you need a space for your display within the City limits, please check the appropriate box on the registration form, and we will be happy to provide one for you.

Your completed display must include at least one scarecrow or some element of hay.
