It’s time for Nebraska City’s 9^th Annual Scarecrow Decorating Contest! Participating businesses display a scarecrow outside of their business and voters select a winner.

Voting this year will be done online. Photographs of each scarecrow will be able to be viewed on the Nebraska City Tourism & Commerce Facebook page; voters can indicate their favorite by “liking” that specific scarecrow’s image. The scarecrow with the most “likes” at the end of the month will be named the People’s Choice. In addition, a panel of judges will select an overall winner.

The contest runs from Monday, October 14, through Thursday, October 31, 2024.
