2005 Bergmann's Corn Maze!

October 2005

This fall, 8 KSARDA members and their spouses participated in the Bergmann's Corn Maze near Haysville. This is a fun opportunity for the members to get together outside of training to form closer bonds, work through a new "challenge", and enjoy themselves. Stacy and Stan Shaver, Sandi, Dale, and Lorrie Stelz, Vicki Walton, Jennifer Thill, Linda and Paul Yoos, and Joe Fehrenbacher attended. Due to the smaller group size this year, the team remained in one large group and decided to work their way through the whole maze to answer most of the trivia questions. We spent roughly 3 hours out there and had a great time! Mr. Bergmann also allowed our team to return a few weeks later, after the Corn Maze had been closed, to work some search training exercises in the maze. It gave the teams a challenge as the wind was constantly swirling around the corn stalks, but the dogs and handlers worked hard, sourced the scent, and found all the victims! Joe, Sandi & K9 Skye, Tammy & K9 Bailey, Jennifer & K9 Jack, Terresia & K9 Sydney, Vicki & K9 Solo, Linda & K9 Squirt attended that training. It was a fun experience for the team!

Joe and the rest of the gang enjoys some cake before heading out. The team is excited about going through the maze this year!

The team plans their strategy. We all enjoyed the ride out to the maze by Mr. Bergmann.

"Hi, Vicki!" The team enters the maze and gets ready to head to the trivia questions.

The members take a break from answering the trivia. "Humm...'How many cubic ft. of dirt is there in a hole that measures 3ft by.....' "

Ok, Stacy... help us with the answer to number 114! The team pauses at another trivia station in the maze.

Now, we need to head north, then go east, then south for a few feet... Whew! Answering these 155 trivia questions is fun!

The team enjoyed the corn maze this year! Members check their compass heading and prepare to exit the maze.

Thank you again, Mr. Bergmann! We can't wait to go through the maze next fall and do some additional search training in the maze! Thanks to Joe for taking the photos!
