Preparations under-way for Scarecrow Festival

The little town of Deepwater with a population of about 350 will hold its second annual Scarecrow Festival this coming November.
We are a small committee keen on putting Deepwater on the map and last year ran a successful festival with many locals, businesses and the school displaying a homemade scarecrow in their front yards.
For further details please contact treasuresonyoung@hotmail.com or phone (02) 6734 5213.
Julie Watt,
Deepwater
