Have you ever walked through a corn maze at night?

Every year, Connors Farm in Danvers creates a huge 4-mile corn maze based on a particular theme. It's an annual fall event that I always enjoy attending. This year, it's based on the TV show Family Guy.

If you've never been to this event, are you in for a treat. There is a spacious parking lot right across the street from the corn maze. They have a country store where you can get some hot apple cider as you purchase your ticket. There is also a food stand for other standard fare (burgers, pizza, sausages, etc). You then cross the street, break up into groups and enter the maze... hoping to come out alive in one piece biggrin Don't worry, there are clues and checkpoints all throughout.

We'll meet in the parking lot at 7pm. (I will wait 15 minutes... after that you are on your own, so please be prompt.) We'll go in and buy our tickets together. Tickets are $12. Afterward, we'll split into 2 or 3 groups and see which team can make it through first!

Be sure to bundle up, and bring a flashlight biggrin

    Be aware that the President will be in Back Bay on Friday afternoon, so your commute may be a little slow coming out of work.

    They are saying increasing chance of rain on Friday night, hopefully it will wait for us. Obviously, if it is downpouring, then we'll have to reschedule the event, but let's keep those fingers crossed :)

       I enjoyed wandering in the Connors Farm maize! It was a lot of fun and nice to get lost in the evening and not know where you are going....meet other people in the maize too! 
    •  I didn't care for the Corn Maze, but the after-event conversation at The Cheesecake Factory was great. 
    • Tahiti Sweetie
       Walking through the corn maze was fun, just wish it had been harder. Conversation at Cheesecake was great! 
    • "Little Reader"
       Great fun navigating the corn maize (hooray, my team got through first!) and then drinks/food at the Cheesecake Factory topped off the evening nicely. Swell group of folks, as usual! Thanks, Tony, for organizing, and be sure to get some more of those NYAJ's gift packs to give away.... 
    •  Well, you don't walk through a corn maze every night, so that was fun. Cheesecake Factory was a blast. And *no* we are not going to do any tantric meetups, ahem. :)
