Additional Activities Boost Attendance At Corn Maze
 |
 |
The company has a catalog of games for on-farm use designed to boost attendance at on-farm attractions.
For example, "Boulder Dash" is a brand new game where contestants on two teams suit-up in helmets and pads to navigate an 8-ft. dia. ęboulder' through a 60 by 180-ft. obstacle course arena with the goal being to get their boulder in the other team's ęBoulder Cup.' After going through the corn maze, it answers the question "what's next?"
The package includes maze plan, sign holders and two boulders. There's an initial purchase fee and an annual license fee.
"Finger Fortunes" is a corn maze game where stations are hidden in the maze and elsewhere on the farm. At each station, players color the tip of one of their fingers. When they have colored all 5 fingers on one hand, these colors make one of 120 different patterns. When the pattern is matched, a "fortune" can be awarded.
The approximately 15 to 20-min. game requires no staff; just a sign pointing visitors to the "Fortune Sign" and refreshments and merchandise. The package includes all needed signs and plexiglass station covers.
"The great thing about our line of maze products is their flexibility. You can use them almost anywhere," says Hugh McPherson, "The Maze Master."
The company also offers assistance with all aspects of designing a corn maze and public relations to grow attendance and profit.
