In case you hadn’t guessed it, Papa has a creative streak. He’s also got a bit of a competitive streak. Both drive him to new heights each year at the pumpkin patch, and 2012 is no different.

Well, actually, it’s going to be quite different, and that’s the point! Take the Zoomin’ Zip Lines for example. Papa started something pretty awesome this weekend. You’re looking at the launch pad for the double zip line. Can you imagine how much fun that’s going to be?

The double zips are going to start higher and travel farther than anything you remember at Papa’s Pumpkin Patch. Yes, there is a bit smaller, shorter zip line — Papa will probably post some photos of it in the next several days. There will also be two Wee Zips this year for the little ones who want to try zipping but prefer an adult at their side (or for the parents who prefer to be at the side of their wee ones).

Know what else? Even with all Papa’s shared about the Zoomin’ Zip Lines there’s still a couple of secrets he’s holding back that will make riding them UBER fun!

The Zoomin’ Zip Lines are open on Saturdays and Sundays from 12-5 pm, and on Thursdays from 4-7 pm. They are $1/zip. The Wee Zips are open 7 days a week from 12-7 pm and they are free.
