Ride Safety 

Safety Is Our Top Priority!

Things you need to kow

  1. Each of our attractions is labeled with height and weight requirements. 

  2. We ask that you check any and all height and weight requirements made by the state and manufacture.

  3. We are not responsible for keeping track of your belongings or for lost or stolen goods.

  4. Experts estimate that approximately 80% of the incidents that occur on carnival equipment are the result of patron error. Rocking ride seats, sticking your hands out of the car, or throwing objects are all examples of behaviors that can result in injury.

  5. It is important that each customer obey the posted rules and regulations for Bortner Shows Midway LLC Those rules can be found on our ride signs, which hang near the ride's entrance.

  6. You can also help by reporting any violation of these rules to the ride operator or at our ride office as soon as you observe the behavior.
