City of Walker issued the following announcement on Oct 26.
The City of Walker, Standale Downtown Development Authority, and the Community Engagement Committee would like to thank all those who participated in the 2021 Standale Scarecrow Contest!
Nearly a dozen businesses and organizations created detailed and unique scarecrows that sit against light poles along the the stretch of Lake Michigan through Standale, beginning at Barkwood Drive (across the street from Standale Wendy's) all the way to 4761 Lake Michigan Drive NW. (across from Goodwill.)
The 2021 winners are:
1st Place: Seven & Mane Salon
2nd Place: Standale Reformed Church

The scarecrows were judged by followers on the City of Walker's Facebook page and will remain up through Halloween.
