We would like to sincerely thank all of you who reached out—by phone, text, and message—following the fire at one of our winter maintenance facilities last week. Your support, encouragement, and offers of assistance have meant a great deal to our entire organization.
We want to reassure our valued business partners across the fair and festival industry, as well as the thousands of guests who join us each summer, that we have a comprehensive plan in place for the 2026 season and beyond. While this was an unexpected challenge, we are approaching it with purpose and optimism—using it as an opportunity to enhance and strengthen our operation - including our ride and amenities offerings. We are confident that this season will reflect an even bigger and better midway experience!
Our partners and guests can continue to expect the same, company wide, superior standards: exceptional customer care, a safe and family-friendly environment, and the exciting, high-quality midway experience that defines our organization as "Michigan's Family Fun Midway."
We are also pleased to share that we have been "A" listed for our staffing needs this year! Our staff members, both near and far are actively making arrangements and preparing to be on site in the coming weeks, ensuring a smooth and successful start to the carnival season.
Thank you again for your continued support and partnership. We look forward to welcoming you and your communities to our midway this summer.
Sincerely -
The Schmidt & Burtch Families
