More DescriptionEach October, a whimsical fever breaks out in the seaside community of Cambria, California. Hundred of local residents don their caps of creativity and go to work manufacturing magic. The end result - hundreds of life-sized fantastical "scarecrows" line the streets of Cambria and neighboring San Simeon. They delight thousands of visitors from around the world. Some folks discover the scarecrows by accident as they tour the famous Big Sur highway. Others make visiting the area for the 'crows an annual "must."This booklet is just a taste of the more than 400 scarecrows that made up the 2014 Cambria Scarecrow Festival. Some were made by students; some were crafted by locals expressing their artistic side; and for a few talented folk, building multiple scarecrows has become a passion. In every case, the creator works out the scarecrow's theme and design, finds a place for it, and puts it up and takes it down.
