**Letter from the Stake Youth Leaders about the Stake activities:

Hello everyone, We are really excited to announce the upcoming Fall Harvest Activity at Raytown. We really hope to see all of the youth there. Since we will be on a farm, please remind your youth not to wear open toed shoes and to bring a flashlight.Super Saturday will be from 2-4 in Madison and then everyone will head out to the farm for dinner which starts at 5:00 p.m.. The dance will be at 6:00 p.m. for ages 14-18 and there will be a fun activity for ages 12-13 during that time. After closing prayer, everyone will be on their own. We think they we will close everything down around 10:00, so everyone can get home before midnight. After the dance, we will have:
A hayride. It may be haunted or we may have a haunted house set up. It will be a surprise!
Although the Maize is not open this year due to all of the rain from the recent hurricanes which caused the corn not to produce very well, we are letting ya'll go through it at night rather than during the day. The corn is not very tall and it will be more fun this way.
We are not sure if we will have the corn cannons or cow trains available after the dance, but we will let you know at the dance. Thanks for all of your help.
