There is no better way to celebrate all the spooky goodness fall brings than by kicking off the annual Haunted Corn Maze in partnership with the Carlsbad Strawberry Company . Thousands of people braved the maze each night—and most made it out alive. Thank you to everyone who stepped foot in the maze. Not only did you lead with bravery, but your admission directly supported environmental education in our community for the upcoming year. A loud, bloody, screaming thank you to every volunteer who made the maze the place to be this season. Your dedication to your roles, your top-tier jump-scare methods, and the miles you ran with a chainsaw were inspiring and unforgettable. Thank you as well to those who braved the maze in another way as volunteer security guards, assisting maze-goers and volunteer scarers whenever needed. Keeping everyone safe is our top priority, and we couldn’t have done it without you. Thank you to the Carlsbad Strawberry Company for hosting us again this year. Each season grows bigger, and each season we grow more grateful for the opportunity to work together. Lastly, thank you to everyone who donated towards supporting our volunteers for this event!

On September 23rd, we gathered at the Discovery Campus to celebrate the people who make everything we do possible — our incredible volunteers! The Taco ’bout Great Volunteers appreciation event was our way of saying a heartfelt thank you to the long-term, dedicated individuals who have poured their time, passion, and care into the Agua Hedionda Lagoon Foundation (AHLF).
