*Please note, the festivities begin at 5:00 p.m. for young children. We previously advertised an incorrect start time.
**In order to make this event a success, we are still in need of a fire ring and acrylic paint. If a family is able to donate these items by tomorrow, we would be very appreciative!
Windsor Charter Academy has been offered the opportunity to run the Community Corn Maze again this year! The maze will be open on Friday, October 27th and Saturday, October 28th. All funds collected will directly support the Windsor Charter Academy High School Theatre Program.
Water Valley & RainDance Metro District residents, as well as Windsor Charter Academy families, are inivted to attend!
We are asking for various donations from our Firebird Families, including: pumpkins, face paint, concession items, decorations, costumes, and toys/trinkets. More details regarding how to donate can be found on the Corn Maze SignUp Genius. Remember, for every $10 in donations, families can earn one volunteer hour.
Corn Maze Information:
The Water Valley Corn Maze is located just east of Ted’s Sweetwater Grill & Trout Pond.
From 5:00 to 7:00 p.m., stations will be geared toward younger kids and families, i.e., Halloween stories, crafts, hot chocolate, popcorn, etc.
From 7:00 to 10:00 p.m., stations will be geared toward a slightly older crowd with props that are more frightening and intended to scare.
The HS Theatre Club will be operating the corn maze activities. Please reach out to meggan.bilotte@windsorcharteracademy.org if you are interested in participating as an actor at the corn maze.
