According to officials, the drive-thru experience is educational, fun for all ages and essential for your families' health and well-being. In order to safely drive by farm animals patrons should:
- stay in your car at all times
- bring sliced or baby carrots to toss out the car window to the animals
- do not bring other food and do not pet the animals
The stadium is located at 94 Championship Place and the cost is $20 per carload. Officials are asking that visitors bring the exact amount of cash so there is no need to handle money.
