October 16th event brings safe, Halloween fun!

Back by popular demand, New Rochelle Department of Parks and Recreation is proud to present “Scarecrows on the Sound” on October 16th at Davenport Park from 10am-noon. New Rochelle families and small groups of up to 8 people are invited to bring a homemade-scarecrow head, outfit and accessories to create their own custom scarecrow using straw, hay, twine and stakes provided by Parks & Rec. Scarecrows can then be taken home or donated for display at City facilities.

Scarecrow stations will be socially-distanced throughout the park, fall games and apple cider will also be onsite.  The cost for the event is $25 per family/group up to 8 people. Pre-registration by mail or in-person is required. Spaces are limited and on a first-come, first served basis. Current CDC guidelines will be observed.
