MARION, OH (MARION COUNTY NOW)—Volunteers from across Marion are celebrating the fall season with a scarecrow display downtown. More than two dozen individuals and organizations have at the request of Downtown Marion, Inc., added colorful straw figures to flowerbeds, benches, and other locations. The display will be up through mid-November.
This festive display serves as a prelude to Downtown Marion, Inc.’s fall festival, scheduled for Thursday, Oct. 17, at Founders Park from 5-8 p.m. The event is free and open to the public. Attendees can look forward to a chili cookoff, food trucks, inflatables, games, fall family activities, and a glow dance party.
