One Fair Scarecrow

Posted on 2:29 PM by Unknown

This morning, I decided to take a leisurely stroll through the Nationwide Donahey Ag & Hort Building presented by Ohio Farm Bureau, home to a giant Corn Cob climbing wall, mouthwatering produce displays, an interactive Land & Living agriculture display and of course – the $9.95 all-you-can eat Smorgasbord.

One of the many staples to this educational building is the annual Scarecrow Contest. I was pleasantly surprised to see that this year’s contest features local celebrities including NBC4’s Tom McNutt, who was filming his regular Saturday news segment nearby. He was, of course, happy to pose for a photo alongside his scarecrow likeness. Despite the fact that I snapped shots of all the scarecrows, I won’t spoil the surprise for you. But since I know you’re curious, here are a few hints about a few of the other celebrities featured: one is wearing a pink wig, another is committed to being fit, one will advise whether or not you need an umbrella on a given day.

So go ahead, go to the Fair and see these imaginative creations for yourself. Once you make your way through the display, be sure to vote for the People’s Choice Fair favorite scarecrow – I’m sure your favorite local celebrity would love your support!
