Corn maze anyone?

Alright, friends, family, strangers, anyone that possibly knows someone that lives in Utah, we need help rallying some troops! 
On Wednesday night, I stayed up late trying to do math and plan out a fun little game for a fundraiser booth that we were going to be able to do at a local corn maze.  On Thursday morning, I read an email that very quickly made us change our plans!  See, it'd been a few weeks since our paperwork had been submitted to the government.  As time passed, we got little to no information on our progress, which though expected, was still discouraging.  So when we opened up an email that morning that said we'd need to be halfway across the world in TWELVE days, the fundraiser (along with many other) plans changed.
Nevertheless, this amazing local company has again extended their help!
As a very quick, last minute fundraiser, Black Island Farms Corn Maze and Nightmare Acres is hosting a fundraiser effort for us this Saturday, October 1st! $1 from every ticket sold will go to helping us bring Lily's big sister home from Eastern Europe and keep her out of an institution!

Black Island Farms is a great place for any age group, with a petting zoo, slides, playgrounds, paintball, corn cannon, corn slingshot, kiddie maze, the biggest maze in the state of utah, great food, pumpkin rides, and one of the best haunted houses/haunted corn maze in the state!  It really is such a fun place and we are thrilled to make multiple trips up there each year.  What can I say? I am a sucker for miniature donkeys and baby pigs races! :)
Please, please, please help us spread the word!
