Silchester Scarecrow Trail 2022
Thank you to everyone who participated in the Silchester Scarecrow Trail
We had 13 excellent entries around the village and many families and friends visiting the Scarecrows during the half term week.
Thanks to the Pop up Café and Calleva Arms for selling and collecting in the maps.
Scores were very close. But we are pleased to announce the overall winner for best scarecrow is Deerhurst, School Lane
and the winning entry was the Fraser family who correctly got the anagram as “Queen of Hearts” – both win a voucher for the Pop up Café.
We will be hosting the event again in 2023.
A really big thank you to everyone who created a scarecrow this year

All the entries were brilliant and it was lovely to see so many people walking around our village, We sold over 200 maps! – we hope to run the event again in 2020 and I hope you will be keen to enter again and we will get some additional entries from around the village
Some photos will be going on the Association FB and Website in the coming days and look out in the newbury weekly times
