AJ and I spent Tuesday evening working out in the corn maze at Nash's Pumpkin Patch. The scouts set up a display in the center of a "room" cut out of the corn. They have a coffin (cardboard spray painted black - and I didn't see too much paint on the scouts!) in a building made with a metal frame, and covered with black plastic. They have a strobe light set up in the building as well, and a skeleton will be placed in the coffin. Not too scary in the daylight, but it should give the little ones a shiver or two! The Patch opens this weekend, and the scouts will be working the corn maze the weekend of the 21st. If it doesn't rain, they should have fun. As you can tell, it got progressively darker as we worked, and - guess what - none of the scouts (except one) brought flashlights out to the corn maze with them! I had a flashlight on my key chain, and the adult leaders had flashlights, so it was quite amusing getting out of the maze in the dark!
