2008 Maze Design Unveiled!!! Frank for President!!!
For the 2008 season, Layman Family Farms and BeamerBall.com teamed up to create one of the most unique corn maze designs in the country. The design features a striking likeness of Virginia Tech's Head Football Coach, Frank Beamer.
"We just really like what Coach Beamer is all about," says Eric Layman, Owner of Layman Family Farms. "We have a lot of respect for him. I'd like to think that we share a lot of the same philosophies and values in the way we go about our business and the way we try to treat people. He's a legend here in the state and we're honored to have him in our cornfield. We also know it will be a big hit with the community."

The 2008 Maze Design
The Maze is divided into 2 sections: phase 1 and phase 2. Everyone starts in phase 1, which comprises about 1/2 of the entire Maze. Once through phase 1, you have a choice. The more adventurous will opt to continue on into the very difficult phase 2 while the faint of heart (and those with small children) will likely call it a day.
In the Maze, you are guided by a series of 10 numbered scarecrows placed in order along the correct path out of the maze. If you desire a little extra help, "passports" are available with questions that must be answered at each scarecrow to receive a hint as to which way to turn. The Maze is constantly patrolled by our highly trained staff of "Corn Cops" who do their best to ensure that everyone has a safe and enjoyable time in the Maze. If they catch you breaking the rules, they will escort you from the Maze for your safety and the safety of those around you.
We require that anyone entering the Maze be properly attired with pants/shorts, a shirt, and shoes. While we recommend sturdy shoes be worn as the paths are at times uneven, anything is acceptable. The temperature inside the Maze is usually 10 to 15 degrees warmer than the temperatue outside, so we advise that you purchase water at the concession to take with you as there is no "escape route" until you find a Corn Cop.
