MERIDEN — There may not have been much of a crowd at the Meriden Town Fair Sunday afternoon, but those who came out were having fun.
On a hot, cloudless day, business was slow at the carnival on the downtown Hub site. The Town Fair opened at 2 p.m., but by 3 not many people had showed up. Carnival workers were hopeful that more would show up toward evening, as temperatures dropped.
For the next week, children and adults can enjoy the food, rides and games provided by Dreamland Amusements.
“Because school is starting soon, we’re hoping it’s going to be slamming,” said Marcee Ayotte, a ticket collector, Sunday afternoon.
Ayotte said the place was packed on Saturday night. Lines were long and her ticket bucket was overflowing. She believes that, with young people going back to school on Wednesday, families will want to experience one last summer outing.
