There was a wonderful atmosphere in Holycross last week and it spilled over into the Pumpkin Fest in St. Michael's Community Centre on Saturday, October 29. The many new Scarecrow residents were popular and viewed by many locals and visitors. They took to the shade of the trees, were guarding gateways and propping up signs while making a big impact throughout the village.
Pupils from the local national school certainly rose to challenge set by The Village Market for the Scarecrow Competition with an impacting display of creativity. There was one late entry.

2nd Prize Winners of €30 and a trophy, Gaile NS entry
3rd Prize Winners of €20 "The Hulk " entry from St Michael's NS Holycross.
