The Review October 7, 2014 ROCK FALLS | HALLOWEEN FUNDRAISER
Haunting for Huntington’s 7th Avenue Shocker’s creator overcomes obstacles BY PAM EGGEMEIER
ROCK FALLS – It wasn’t easy this year, but the 7th Avenue Shocker, a free haunted maze, will be open. Terry Warren had a maze in his front yard at 201 Seventh Ave. last year, and hit some roadblocks when he tried to supersize it this year. Warren received a citation from the city for a violation of building, zoning and fire codes. Warren pleaded his case before the city on Aug. 19, with supporters waving banners in council chambers. This year’s event has special meaning for Warren. The maze is a fundraiser for Huntington’s disease awareness and research. Warren’s wife, Jennifer, has battled the disease for 10 years, and is now at a local nursing center. Huntington’s is a degenerative neu-
romuscular disease that has no cure. It is genetically contracted, and children of those with the disease have a 50 percent chance of inheriting the gene. “My wife is the definition of strength, and I wanted to pay tribute to her and increase awareness of a horrible disease that many people know nothing about,” Warren said. While the city offered support for Warren’s cause, they told him the maze would have to be scaled back to code. Warren told the city he would do whatever it took to comply, and went back to work the day after the council meeting. He is still wrapping up a few details, but is happy with the finished product. “It all had to be torn down, but this one is still much bigger than it was last year,” Warren said. “The city didn’t like the way it was all
enclosed, but now there are three or four exits in every room.” City Building Inspector Mark Searing said Warren’s structure is no longer in violation of city code. “The first one had four walls, a roof, and not enough exits,” he said. “It’s not a building anymore under my criteria, and there are plenty of places for people to get in and out.” Warren said about 15 family members and friends will be on hand the stage the event. The maze will be open from 7 to 9:30 p.m. Saturdays in October and on Oct. 31.
