Congratulations to our 5th Annual Dayton Community Development Association’s Scarecrow Contest winners for 2024! Thank you to all the participants who helped increase Dayton’s population one scarecrow at a time!
You have one more weekend (through Sunday Oct. 13th) to take a drive around town to see all the entries, and get into that Fall Spirit! The map to all the scarecrows is available in a pinned post, and will drop the link in the comments.

About the scarecrow contest:
• Scarecrows may be traditional, whimsical, humorous, mischievous, or loveable.
• Only HANDMADE scarecrows will be accepted.
• Bloody/violent themes, advertising, political or religious statements are not allowed.
• This is a family friendly event and DCDA reserves the right to disqualify any entry.
• Prizes will be awarded in Dayton Dollars to be spent at participating Dayton businesses. No change will be given if face value is not spent in one visit. All winners will also receive a commemorative yard sign for bragging rights!
Judging: Voting will be done on our social media site by community members. We will upload photos to an album on our Facebook page for viewing and judging. Community voting will be done on Facebook through October 8th. Winners announced October 9th.
The Dayton Community Development Association may use the photographs of the entries for publicity in future posters, on our website and on our Facebook page.
