Boston Spa scarecrow trail

Boston Spa Festival has been cancelled because of Covid-19 social restrictions but organisers have announced that the fourth Scarecrow Trail will go ahead.

This year the event, from July 4-12, will include Thorp Arch and Clifford and follow a Sporting Legends theme.

Winning scarecrow builders in each village will receive prizes, with separate prizes for private and business/community entries. There will also be a special prize for the most environmentally friendly entry.

All entry forms should be submitted by Saturday June 13 to Boston Spa Village Hall.
