Some of the best teachers of
all time used parables to make complex ideas understandable.
In that spirit, we would like to suggest you bring your group to
Crumland Farms to experience the Parable
of the Corn Maze. With its
twists and turns, dead ends and unpredictable paths, the 8-acre corn
maze is a great metaphor for life!
Just like life, everyone approaches the corn maze differently.
Some try to plan their route in advance, while others prefer a
more impulsive, trial-and-error method. Some navigate it better
in a large group, while others go it alone or with 1-2 trusted
friends.
As the kids go deeper into the maze, different gifts emerge. Some
become the problem-solvers, others the cheerleaders. They begin
to examine roles. Who leads? Who follows? They pick up clues along
the way, using their new knowledge to map their way out. Each group
carries a flag to wave, signaling to the maze master that help
is needed. Many parallels between life and the maze there!
Lively discussions follow a group’s trip through the corn
maze. Young people talk about their challenges—in the maze,
and in life—with remarkable insight. Group leaders, scout
masters and youth pastors have used the experience to teach important
life lessons—imagine the possibilities!
Talk to us about your groups needs-- we can arrange meals, drinks
and snacks in our covered picnic area.
Times fill up fast. Call us today to reserve a spot for your group—a
wonderful experience awaits!
