ALPHARETTA - Alpharetta's annual Scarecrow Harvest was all about participation by schools and classrooms across the city, and by any measure it was a success.
A record 99 scarecrows were assembled by students and parent helpers.
That participation earned several of the classrooms prizes. The most creative, best constructed, best personality and "SchCOOLest" awards brought with them $100 prizes for each of the classrooms from Colonial Bank, the Downtown Alpharetta Trade Association, attorney Bruce T. Leonard & Associates and BB&T Bank.
Harry's Farmers Market also donated a cookie cake to each of the winners, with Chck-Fil-A providing a free meal. And a copy of "Alpharetta, Milton County - The Early Years," a local pictorial history book, also will be donated to the winning school's media centers.
This year's event followed a historical theme in celebration of Alpharetta's Sesquicentennial.
