It's like bar trivia meets Family Feu- actually we can't say the full name for copyright fears, but here's the deal: Quirk Events asked 100 people a bunch of questions, and now your team has to guess the most popular answer to each one. Game runs Tuesdays from 6 PM - 8 PM and it's FREE to participate! Food and drinks will be available for purchase while you play!

Alfred Cunningham once insisted there were no heirs... and yet, here you are – invited to a formal dinner to meet the "next generation" and witness the future of the Cunningham estate being decided. The guest list is full of surprise connections, suspicious intentions, and a few people who seem a little too eager to claim the legacy.
The dinner bell rings promptly at 6:30 PM with mingling in the Homestead dining room - until the night takes a sharp, murderous turn.

Once tickets are purchased, each person in your group will be assigned a character for the event.

Families can enjoy a special round of 15‑minute Goat Snuggle sessions at Lyman Orchards throughout the spring season. Our friendly goats will be on‑site, offering quick, cozy visits that fit easily into a day at the orchard. As the weather warms from March into May, these shorter sessions are perfect for younger guests or anyone looking for a sweet, low‑commitment cuddle experience away from the farm. Each date brings its own touch of springtime charm, making it a simple and heartwarming addition to your orchard outing.
Minors cannot make reservations to handle a goat alone, but can be added as an additional helper to assist an adult handler on the goat walk. There must be at least 1 adult person who will be the handler for each goat.
$10 per person
