The fun keeps<br />

on going...<br />

February <strong>2016</strong> was the<br />

20th Anniversay of one of<br />

the leading family Tourist<br />

Attractions in the area<br />

who are always looking<br />

to offer a “good value for<br />

money day out for visitors<br />

of all ages whatever the<br />

weather”.<br />

In <strong>2016</strong> Rand Farm Park<br />

added Family Farmyard Crazy<br />

Golf as well as a Traverse<br />

Climbing Wall to the ever<br />

expanding range of activities<br />

and facilities and as another<br />

year is nearing its end, Rand<br />

Farm Park is already looking<br />

ahead to Spring 2017 when<br />

lots of baby lambs are due to<br />

arrive in time for the February<br />

Half Term.<br />

However, there’s still lots to<br />

enjoy with Christmas almost<br />

upon us and following many<br />

changes and additions last<br />

year to provide an even bigger<br />

and better “Real Christmas<br />

Experience” (which were<br />

well received by adults and<br />

children alike) this year<br />

promises to be even better<br />

still.<br />

Once again there will be<br />

biscuits to decorate in Mrs<br />

Claus’ Kitchen before a visit<br />

to Santa’s Home in the Forest<br />

via his posting station and<br />

Reindeer feeding station<br />

and a look at The Real Farm<br />

Nativity (with<br />

animated figures<br />

and real animals).<br />

With a few places<br />

left to come along<br />

for Breakfast with<br />

Santa at various<br />

times during the<br />

final two weekends<br />

before the big<br />

day, there will be<br />

entertainers and<br />

even more Christmas Surprises<br />

(to delight parents as well as<br />

children), what better place to<br />

start your own family celebrations<br />

than a trip to this ever popular<br />

visitor attraction.<br />

And then....2017 will be upon us.<br />

Ideas and plans are already under<br />

way for changes and additions<br />

for next year including a new<br />

Under 4’s Play Area, which will<br />

be ready by the Easter Holidays<br />

and maybe a little<br />

something for<br />

older children.<br />

However, there<br />

will also be<br />

changes to the<br />

animal selection<br />

at Rand with the<br />

decision having<br />

been made to<br />

DAYS OUT<br />

Rand Farm Park<br />

reduce the size of Richard’s<br />

prize-winning Charolais Herd to<br />

make space for a wider variety of<br />

cattle including Eileen and Rosie<br />

who will be the founder members<br />

of a new herd of Lincoln Reds<br />

to support Lincolnshire’s local<br />

breed.<br />

In addition this year: hopefully<br />

the Goat Show will actually come<br />

together as an additional family<br />

fun show each afternoon in the<br />

summer months – offering a little<br />

education and interesting facts<br />

about several breeds of different<br />

always-naughty but fun-loving<br />

and mischievious goats.<br />

So with this in mind. Let’s look<br />

forward to the year ahead and<br />

wait to see the developments as<br />

they take shape...<br />
