You’re never too old for the farm
I recently listened to a report on CBC about kids and their inactivity levels. Apparently, Canadian kids get a bad grade for activity levels; the kids sit too much and move too little. You can read the report here >>. Often kids aged 12-14 and older will come to the farm with their parents, grandparents, or youth group and they initially feel like they are “too old” or “too cool” for the farm. This, of course, quickly changes as they start to explore! Hearing this recent news report reminded me of one of my favourite moments here at the farm. There were a couple of girls who came with a family and began their visit just kind of looking around and looking cool but within the hour I saw them running from activity to activity, laughing, going down the slides, climbing the tire mountain, jumping on the pillows and more. They were smiling and laughing, and PLAYING. It was so great to see. That’s why we do what we do here at the Kraay Family Farm.
Brownie’s first Mother’s Day
We woke up on Mother’s Day to find a new mother in our pygmy goat pen! This is Brownie’s first Mother’s Day and her little baby is cute as a button. Can you help us think of a name? Here’s a few fun facts about goats for you while you think about it: did you know a group of goats is called a trip, a domestic male goat is called a billy and a female, a nanny. And this is one of my favourite facts: Goats discovered coffee beans! Every morning I’m thankful for goats!
14 Years of Kraay
It was our 14th year this year – 2013!! This year we partnered with the Tour of Alberta and feature their logo in our maze. The inaugural Tour of Alberta marked Canada’s first major international professional stage race. The event included more than 50 communities of various sizes, making it one of Canada’s most unique and most spanning sporting events. The event took place September 3 – 8, 2013 throughout the province. Check out last year’s aerial! We created the WORLD’S LARGEST QR CODE. Guinness World Records officially gave us the record for the QR code measuring 309,570 Square feet!! 29,000 square metres! It was another wonderful season – Thank you! We will see you again in July of 2014!

Corporate Team Building Programs @ Kraay
This is an overview of the teambuilding program at Kraay Family Farm – Home of the Lacombe Corn Maze Inc. The teambuilding literature we provide leads you to provide a fantastic teambuilding opportunity that you direct as to the specific needs of your particular group. This self-guided team-building exercise starts with the Self-facilitation Guide. This guide gives you ideas on how you can steer your team through the maze. For example, we suggest that teams do one phase on their own to get an idea of what it is like to do a maze alone. Then, the team can do the second phase together and see how they do as a team rather than individuals. Another suggestion, for example, is to do the maze blindfolded with a partner leading the way! With each example there are suggestions for note taking and team discussion questions. You will also receive some information about team basics and teambuilding. Here is an example of a team basic: Team Critical Elements There are four critical elements of team building that help to align team members around a common purpose and structure the team for performance: Team Mission, Operating Processes, Operating Principles, and Team Member Roles. Kraay Family Farm also provides a special “passport” through the maze for teams. This passport contains questions all relating to teambuilding. Team leaders may choose to use this passport or one of our other fact finding passports – all will help to guide you on your way. Example of one of the Questions The primary success factor for any team is: a. The ability to share equally among all team members (turn right) b. Bonding between team members (turn left) c. A clearly defined mission understood by the team (turn left) For more information please call us at (403) 302-1709 and ask to speak to Linda or Rachel or email us at info@kraayfamilyfarm.com
