DOTHAN: By Sunday, as the weather passes, we’ll all need a little whimsical fun to brighten our day. Here’s something beautiful, creative and downright joyful happening right here in Dothan!
The scarecrows are out and about at the Dothan Area Botanical Gardens, 5130 Headland Avenue in Dothan.
Load up the kids, put a leash on the pup, and come to the Scarecrow Open House on Sunday, October 11th, from 2 p.m. until 6 p.m.
During the open house, admission will be FREE, and there will be plenty of fun for the whole family — including family activities, an ice cream truck and the chance to vote for your favorite scarecrow!
So grab the kids, bring your camera and come see what these clever characters have been up to in the gardens.
Who will be the most creative? The funniest?
There’s only one way to find out — come meet the scarecrows! They’re ready to greet visitors through October 31st, from 9 a.m. until 6 p.m.
Admission is just $5 for adults, while members and children 15 and younger get in free. Visitors should enter through the Ralph and Carolyn Smith Botanical Center.
