Having proved popular in 2023 we are pleased to be able to announce that the Rustington Heritage Association will once again be co-ordinating the Rustington Scarecrow Trail. 

This years theme is "We do like to be beside the Seaside".  

What is it all about?....

The Rustington Heritage Association's (RHA) facilitated Rustington's first Scarecrow Trail as part of the Associations 40^th birthday celebrations in 2023.

Buoyed on by the success of the inaugral competition RHA are once again inviting the Rustington community to get creative and crafty whilst adding a splash of colour and creativity to the Village this summer. 

This years Seaside theme gives tonnes of room for you to exercise your imagination - from holiday makers and seaside scenes through to mermaids and any of the birds and animals associated with the beach. 

The Good News... The trail maps will also be FREE! Download your copy here

There will be prizes!

There are two categories, Organisation and Individual, and the winners, voted by the public, will receive a (small) trophy and certificate.

You can vote for your favourite scarecrow here until midnight on the 27 August 2024

The Important Bits...

The scarecrows should remain in place for three weeks (10th August until 1st September), although voting will close on the 27^th August 2024.

The scarecrows must be displayed on private land.

They are the responsibility of the builder, not Rustington Heritage Association
