The Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce has announced the top three entries in the 2026 Scarecrow Decorating contest:

• First place: GROB Systems
• Second place: SumiRiko
• Third place: Et Cetera Shop

Seventeen businesses participated in the competition. GROB garnered 35 out of the 104 votes.

Filling a decorative gap between live flowers provided by Bluffton in Bloom and holiday decorations associated with the Blaze of Lights, Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce holds an October scarecrow decorating contest that populates downtown Bluffton with cute, scary and fantastical figures.
