“You don’t have to be that smart, you just have to know a lot of smart people,” says Feltz. “So we’re lucky, we’ve got a great team we work with every year. And we’re lucky enough that they continue to help us every year.”

Although they can control the work that goes into the project, what cannot be controlled is mother nature.

Fortunately for the Feltz’s, she’s been on their side.

“We’ve been so lucky this fall,” says Feltz. “I don’t think we’ve had, besides our opening weekend, it rained and kind of washed out the first weekend, I think we’ve had good weather every day pretty much.”

Beyond the perfect match on paper between both stores, the Feltz’s said they’ve been pleased with the involvement of Kwik Trip.

“If there’s something that’s kind of a question mark, you reach out and in like an hour they have it fixed,” says Feltz. “It’s amazing how fast they work and the team they have there. If we could, I’d love to work with them every year.”

Just in time for Halloween, Feltz’s Dairy Store will get their spooky on by turning the maze into a haunted path for visitors for four nights.
