The Roswell Historical Society claimed victory in the Nonprofit and Club Category, and Aileen Murphy won the Individual, Family and Neighborhood Category.

“These community events bring together the people of Roswell and North Fulton County while raising much-needed funds for deserving nonprofit and teacher grant recipients, as well as student scholarships,” said Roswell Woman’s Club President Leigh Ann Buelow. “The creativity and enthusiasm shown by all participants made this year’s events particularly special. This annual event aligning Canton Street with sponsored scarecrows has become a cornerstone event for our community.”
