F-80 KIDDIE RIDE
Mr Nevins used old coin operated helicopters on this ride that he built himself.
I've played all over PA. If you check pages in the blog archive you'll run across quite a few PA spots. In Williamsport I've played at the Ballpark in town for the Boon Festival. Also just north of town for a fireman's carnival. Also the Hughesville Fair. Played Bloomsburg for quite a few years at the Fair and also with a circus in the spring. Dick
