Scarecrows covering more ground this year at fest

ST. CHARLES – Andrea Kruger makes sure to mark the date of Scarecrow Fest on her calendar every year.



Kruger and her children, Peri, 10, and Hannah, 7, brought a pair of jeans and a sweater Friday to make their own scarecrow, which will stand near a tree in their front yard in Vernon Hills, wearing a hockey mask.



“The goal is to make a scarecrow, put him in the car and look around at different scarecrows and vendors,” she said. “It’s so beautiful around here.”
