CORN MAZE VISIT TIPS
So what is a corn maze?
Corn mazes are giant puzzles that you walk through. Farms take cornfields and cut paths into them. But to add more of a challenge there are loops and dead ends to get you lost. And since the corn is usually taller than you are, it is easy to get lost. Many times corn mazes are even cut to make the field look like some type of picture or design.
What kind of person does it take to navigate through a maze, and will I receive a map to help navigate the maze?
Mazes can be accomplished by anyone. Both children and children at heart will love the experience of navigating, getting lost, and finding their way again. At our maze, we give visitors a map to help you find your way to the exit. You can also use your smart phone and gps as you find your way through the maze. While in the maze, we offer extra puzzles and games to make it even more fun.
Do I have to use my smart phone while in the maze?
No. We provide paper maps and trivia cards. You can, however, use your smartphone to access more than 60 categories of questions to navigate the maze. Answer correctly and you will be headed in the right direction. But if you are incorrect...let's just say you need to watch out for a dead end!
You can also turn your phone into a virtual punch card. Use your phone to scan QR codes (or type the code in). The phone tracks which checkpoints you have found, and when you are all finished you can enter into a drawing to win prizes.
Plus, teachers and group leaders can also write their own custom trivia questions through an online tool to print and bring for their students or members.
What should I take to visit a maze?
