“Entrants will be randomly assigned a location for their scarecrow ... (and) will be informed of their assigned location by email and billed for their registration fee.”

Registration is $40 for nonprofits, individuals and families; and $100 for businesses for a prime spot, $60 for a location “off the beaten path.” The public will be able to vote for best scarecrow at a cost of $1 per vote at the Visitors Center or participating businesses.
