With only 30 days until Wifflefest 12 the excitement level has been picking up around the Osborne house. Swings are being taken, Pitches are starting to break. Rust is being knocked off. The power wheels that drive the Wifflefest machine are starting to churn once again.
This is old hat to veterans of the great wiffleball tournament, however, newcomers to Wifflefest this year may be wondering what they are getting into. To help give you a sneak peak into what you can expect when you are not dominating the wiffleball fields, we have created a list of must do activities for the big day.
1. Take a walk. Did you know that walking is like one of the best things you can do for exercise besides play wiffleball? Apparently, studies suggest that if you could walk forever, you may also live forever, or close to it. The Martin Tree Farm where Wifflefest is hosted has over 300 acres, most of which have marked trails. Enhance your experience by taking a stroll through one, enjoying the fall foliage.

2. Canoe. The tree farm has a few canoes/paddle boats that attenders can take out for a cruise on the pond. If you get close enough to the wiffleball field, you may catch a home run.
3. Fish. Most people like to fish. I think it is kind of boring.
4. Camp out. The tree farm is a perfect place to camp out on fall evenings. Let us know ahead of time and we can even have a campfire and/or outdoor movie set up for your viewing pleasure.
5. Bounce house. Mostly for the young or young at heart. We will have two bounce houses set up, feel free to watch your own kids jump to their heart’s content or until they are injured.
6. Tree Swings. This should probably be the #1 reason why you should come to Wifflefest, as I go out and swing sometimes just to relax. It is amazing how putting a swing under a bunch of pine trees makes it that much better.
7. Hay Ride. We will have two hay rides at Wifflefest. The first will be in the morning, around 11 am giving people a chance to see a little more of the farm. The second ride will be after our pot luck lunch, probably around 2pm. They ride will last about thirty minutes.
8. Ball Park Snacks. I’m a snacker. I could snack on things all day, rather than sit down and gorge myself on a big meal. We will have snacks available all day long at Wifflefest. Everything from hot dogs, popcorn and nachos, to cotton candy, snow cones and candy bars. Drinks are also provided at no charge! Please just help yourself.
9. Wiffle Golf. Sometimes being bad at wiffleball has its advantage. Like when being bad, lets you have a lot of extra time to play wiffle golf on an 18 hole home made course at the Tree farm. The course is complete with bunkers, greens, and tee boxes carved throughout the woods. Clubs and balls are available in the tree house for use. Tee times are not necessary.
10. The Tree House. If you have a baby or you need to sneak away for some sort of private business, the Tree House is a perfect place to do just that. Complete with three bedrooms and two baths, it is available for anyone to use during the weekend of Wifflefest.
