For 23 years, the Festival of Scarecrows has invited the community out to see creative scarecrow designs, enjoy fun hayrides, and participate in family friendly activities. Costume parade, pumpkin decorating, corn maze (bring a non-perishable food item to donate to the Rising Church Food Bank for free entry), check out the giant pumpkins from the Arvada Gardeners, enjoy delicious fall treats, and be sure to vote for your favorite scarecrow – the winners will receive prizes!

​New this year is the Great Chili Cook-Off Contest, share samples of your homemade recipe to win prizes.

Free family fun event to support community non-profits.
