Ken's 10 Acre Fall Playground

Ken's Korny Corn Maze, started in 2000, and has amazed and amused visitors since it's first day open. The maze is worked out as early as February where put on paper their ideas to turn six acres of a cornfield into two miles of twists and turns. It takes four men working in the field to make the patterns. The corn is about two feet tall when they start shaping and when they finally finished the first week of July it is head tall. To make the five-foot paths corn stalks are actually pulled out rather than cutting them, to avoid leaving dangerous stubs in the ground. The average time to maneuver the maze take 60-75 minutes. When you get in there, all you see is cornrows and blue sky. You might also hear some passing planes. Many planes often circle around to go over the field again, slowly and lower. You will get out there and learn about farm life and get some exercise, it's a lot of good, family fun.

After purchasing a ticket and choosing a flag on a long pole, navigators push a time clock and start weaving. Each "player" gets instructions on the rules of the maze, a flag, attached to a six-foot pole, and a game card. Within the maze are twelve"mailboxes. " The objective is to find each of the twelve mail-boxes, each of which has a stamp to apply to the game card. Each participant punches a game clock when he enters and the object is to complete the maze, gathering stamps from each of the twelve mailboxes in the shortest possible time. Some "secrets" to negotiating the maze successfully. Sections of the maze are color coded, he said, and the game card includes some hints about how to find your way. "It's like a game board," he said, not wanting to reveal too many of the maze's secrets. "And the color coded markers can help you find your way out, if you use a little common sense. Observers will be on duty on the observation deck, and if a maze-wander encounters trouble, he can wave his flag for help. "Runners" also will be stationed within the maze itself to answer questions and provide assistance.

Our maze also includes something that other mazes don't two rest stations. About every third of the way through the maze there is an open area provided with a tent, benches and water cooler to serve as a rest area.

The attraction will be open on September 14th thru November 10th. Beginning in mid October, just in time for Halloween, the maze also will be open for flashlight or moon light excursions.
