Kim and I went out to Sever’s Corn Maze in Shakopee, MN next to Cantebury Park.
While waiting in line, they had easles showing all their past mazes running back to 1997 including a castle, the 2000 and 2004 election themes, and this years’s safari theme.
The entrance price was a bit much but with Internet coupons from their site we entered for $7/ea. After wading through the corn like Field of Dreams, you walk into a huge courtyard filled with gourds, pumpkins, fair foods, animal rides, and a bridge overlooking the maze.
We waited in the extremely long bathroom lines prior to entering the maze which gave me time to let the GPS lock up. I was planning on scanning the map of the maze and laying my GPS tracks on top but of course the GPS shut off because of lower power :( Some Eagle Scout I am.
They gave you the option of running through the maze looking to find signs of 26 African animals and mark the ones that were endangered. We made it through only having to backtrack twice. Not bad IMHO.
We hopped on the observation bridge and took in the craziness of the crowd. After that Kim wanted to go to the petting zoo and then we headed out.
Great way to spend an absolutely gorgeous fall day (63 and sunny).
