FAMILY ATTRACTIONS MIDWAY Family Attractions dedicated to family fun and the fairs we serve. Safety is our number one priority. Family Attractions owned and operated by Dominic and Ruby Macaroni was founded in 1996. Our family has been serving the outdoor amusement industry for 4 generations and will continue to strive for a better experience for the patrons to our midway. Rides on the midway feature something for all ages from the newest rides to all time favorites. With all rides being inspected daily along with inspections by the state as required. Family Attractions Midway offers a variety of food from a polish sausage, fresh squeezed lemonade, cotton candy, candy apples along with fried candy bars and deep fried oreos and of course (Ruby’s famous homemade corndogs). We invite patrons to come experience your local county fair, renew old friendships, enjoy local merchants that are exhibiting and have some fun. Remember to support your local fair, because without you all the preparation that comes before the fair would be in vain. It takes (You) the community to make a fair. Family Attractions wishes you a very blessed 2015.
