Join our Beanstack Bingo Challenge and go on a Scarecrow Scavenger Hunt around Buchanan! The Buchanan Scarecrow Charities make such amazing scarecrows every year, and this year they had to get creative as there are no light poles downtown! Our scavenger hunt will be a little more challenging because the scarecrows are farther ranging, but consider it an adventure!

Fill in your bingo card by finding the featured scarecrows around Buchanan and listing their sponsors (the text on the orange pumpkin signs). Get a bingo and earn a small prize. Fill your bingo card and be entered to win a larger prize!

If you'd like a paper copy to follow along with, they are available at the library's Front Desk, or click the following link to download it:

A map of the general area where this year's scarecrows are located is included with the paper copy. You can also view larger photos of the scarecrows in our online Scarecrow Photo Gallery.

This challenge is open to all ages and will run September 1 through October 31, 2025.

And remember- while the scarecrows should be up through Halloween, the sponsor signs usually start coming down a few days before that, so don't wait until the last minute!

*Note* to earn the selfie square/badge, email your selfie to Laura at l.hauch@buchananlibrary.org. Emailing photos to library staff signifies you give your permission for the photo to be shared on the library's social media pages unless you tell us otherwise.
