The City is seeking Mission Viejo-based businesses, nonprofit organizations (churches, scouts, schools and charities) to make a scarecrow for its 5th annual Scarecrow Contest.

The City's fun, spooky contest calls for businesses and nonprofit organizations to design and create a scarecrow for display at the Norman P. Murray Community and Senior Center in October. The City will build the frames and bases (made from wood and cement) or organizations can make their own. Each scarecrow will be tagged with the organization's name and on display during the popular Walk Against Drugs.
