Friday, Saturday last days of maze

This shot of the maze was taken back in August. Since then, the corn is much taller and all the paths have been cut through the rows. Look at I-64 to the right of the maze... you can see just how big a project this was to undertake. The letters that say "Carter County" are 40 feet tall!

This is it, folks. The final two days of the maze. This marks a change from our normal schedule -- we'll be open on Friday night for the Halloween Haunted Maze. It is October 31st, after all, what better time for the maze to come alive and gobble up unsuspecting adventurers?

Now, about that Haunted Maze...

pumpkinevil.jpgThat's right, the final two days of the maze (Oct. 31, Friday night, and Nov. 1, Saturday night) will feature haunted, creepy, goulish, scary stuff designed to give you a good fright in the spirit of Halloween fun. Some features will be pretty intense, so Moms and Dads be warned: the Haunted Maze isn't recommended for children 10 and younger. The cost for the haunted maze is $7.50. And, while we'll be open at 6 pm, the real fun begins after dark -- closer to 7 pm. Read more about it on the Maze schedule.

Spooky stuff planned for final weeked of the Maze

Plus, the maze is in the news again!

Just about every day there's a new maze tidbit or news item discussed on Grayson's own GO-Radio. If you've been listening, you know about Jim Phillips' "balloon plan" -- that's what he says it would take for him to give the maze a try. Wonder what that's all about? Tune into WUGO in the morning and hear what KJ and Jim think about the day and its events.

Plus, Daily Independent columnist John Cannon digs the maze. Read about it here...

and the Journal-Times has this to report about the success of the maze, read it here...
