Rowlands Castle Scarecrow Trail 2020

Scarecrow Trail update! We aren’t promoting it this year to those who live outside of Rowlands Castle so to keep numbers down and endeavour to keep the village safer for residents, especially in light in the new National Restrictions currently in place.For those doing the trail, please read & adhere to the Guidelines.Thank you

The Rowlands Castle Scarecrow Trail is a community event, this year brought to you by the St John’s Primary School PTA. It aims to bring villagers & local businesses together for some fun & some fundraising that will put a smile on everyone’s face!

Everyone has a film they have loved to watch, with a character, they just never forget. This may be a family favourite to watch with the children or a childhood memory. It could be a Harry Potter character or “Shrek”, maybe a character from an earlier decade, “Grease” or “Alice in Wonderland” or perhaps a superhero. The ideas are endless and you need to start planning now as it is only a few weeks away. 

Don’t be concerned that the scarecrows need to be works of arts – they don’t – it is just about having fun. Feedback from trail followers who have done this in other villages is that they thoroughly enjoyed walking around the village and looking at all the scarecrows!

Open between 9am – 4pm each day of the trail

Trail maps available from the Londis. £2 (exact change please, no card payments unfortunately)
