Sandi Dixon from the Okanagan Science Centre and Glen Taylor of the O'Keefe RanchThe Okanagan Science Centre is teaming up with the O'Keefe Ranch to make this Halloween even more 'spooktacular.'The Centre, which has developed Haunted House events at its site in Polson Park the past 11 years, this year will be all new with an event at the Ranch's Corn Maze."The ranch staff and volunteers have done a fantastic job in creating their new corn maze. It is the perfect venue to transform into a "field of screams" says OSC's executive director, Sandi Dixon. "There will be daytime hands-on family friendly events with a focus on agriculture and science, as well as the ever popular very scary night time events." O'Keefe Ranch General Manager Glen Taylor is looking forward to working with the Okanagan Science Centre on the new project. "We have been receiving great reviews so far from visitors to the new Corn Maze, this is the first time we have tried this at the ranch and are always looking for new opportunities and partnerships to enhance our visitor experience." It takes an army of volunteers for events of this magnitude and people of all ages and abilities are invited to join in the fun and help make it all happen. Volunteers are needed immediately to help with planning, prop design and building. Volunteers can contact either the science centre ( info@okscience.ca/ 250.545.3644 )or ranch ( events@okeeferanch.ca/ 250 542 7868 for more details or to sign up.
