Official Maze of The Old
Farmer's Almanac |
Shippensburg, PA; home of two of America's treasures,
Jim & Miriam Witter.
Witterdale Farms hosted The Amazing Maize Maze®
in 1995 and again in 1997.
In 1995, with great community support
and coordinated with the Annual August Corn Festival,
we presented the Original Show that intrigued the World:
Sir Francis Drake's "The Golden Hinde" |
|
 |
 |
Covered by New York Times, USA Today, Good Morning America, The Today Show, CNN, Discovery, NPR's "All Thing's Considered", People Magazine, and the international press. |

It was like the first time you saw fireworks. Everyone told everyone else.
It was seen on TV screens around the world, and in the seven days we were
open, 23,000 people from 22 states and 9 countries got lost - and found,
in the Witter cornfield. Guinness even got involved!

The 1995 Shippensburg Amazing Maize Maze® |
We had challenged the world and in the coming years,
there would be an explosion of cornfield mazes.
A new family-aimed entertainment art-form had been born.
In 1997 AMC returned to "Build an even Bigger Boat"
and to keep "A Promise"
The ORIGINAL,
nationally acclaimed, The 1997 Amazing Maize Maze® As reported in The New York Times, USA Today, People Magazine, and seen on the Today Show, Good Morning America, and the Discovery Channel, this is a perfect way to teach your family, group or employees teamwork, problem solving, map reading and navigation, decision making, perseverance, AND… have wonderful fun doing it! In our desire to always keep a Ship in Shippensburg, another old ship, Noah's Ark, is making a Shippensburg Port-of-Call. As one of the oldest ships of history, it promises to be a mountain top experience - in a sea of corn. Pair up with another family and come on a Search for the Rainbow! |
