Thousands of people attend the Scarecrow Invasion’s Friday evening Parade & Family Festival in Market Square. Children and adults love to dress up as scarecrows. As an added attraction, many carry stuffed and manufactured varieties of the cute figures during Friday evening’s festivities. Weekend activities include harvests dinners, special scarecrow exhibits and contests, pancake breakfasts, a hay maze obstacle course, apple-peeling contest and entertainment for the entire family. Both Scarecrow Invasion and the popular Apple Harvest Craft show are held annual over the first weekend in October. Scarecrows are usually kept on display until after Thanksgiving weekend
A walk around the heritage main street area reveals streets lined with excellent examples of Victorian and Edwardian era buildings, again most of red brick. Look up to appreciate the architectural flourishes that were lavished on some of these buildings. Businesses include antique shops like McGinty’s with its wide selection of collectibles displayed in two stores one of which also houses a café with original tin ceilings, windows and flooring still in place.
