COLUMBIA — Visitors from across Missouri explored Shryocks Callaway Farms' corn maze located east of Columbia on Saturday. This is the 10th maze grown by Shryocks Callaway Farms. Previous designs of the maze drew inspiration from the MU and St. Louis Cardinals logos and Mount Rushmore.
Others spent their Saturday roasting marshmallows or working on crafts at Bass Pro Shop. These activities are a part of a series of Halloween events the retail store is hosting during October.

Guests wandered the maze looking for eight hidden checkpoints with questions written on them. Once found, they could then punch the answer on an orange card they received at the start
