This year, Godfrey was going to have a small maze and we only would have done it a month to keep the cycle going but with the new restrictions from the governor, Tuesday limiting the number of people that can be together. The Village of Godfrey Board of Trustees decided to cancel it altogether.

“We will do it better next year with a special design and we will do it up," Godfrey Mayor Michael McCormick said. "Next year will be a better year, We will have a better fireworks show along with a better corn maze."
