Press Release
From Eliada Homes:
Eliada Homes is pleased to announce the results of our 2014 Eliada Corn Maze!
The Maze, which ran for 9 weeks, raised $178,000, 100% of which will be used to care for the more than 500 children who need Eliada’s services each year.
More than 21,800 children and adults attended the Maze this year, not including children under 4 years old.
It takes more than 400 volunteers to run the Maze. We are grateful to each and every person who donated their time and contributed to our success.
Once again, we want to thank all our sponsors:
