Spencerport Fire District gears up for another carnival season

The Spencerport Volunteer Firemen’s Association is excited for this year’s annual carnival and looks forward to having the community come out and support their volunteer firefighters. Since 1937, the annual Spencerport Firemen’s Carnival has been entertaining the residents of Spencerport, Ogden and surrounding communities with an array of rides, games, food and family fun.

This year, the Spencerport Volunteer Firemen’s Association welcomes Hammerl Amusements as the carnival’s new ride operator. Hammerl Amusements, based in Williamsville, New York, is a Western New York company that has been family owned and operated for over 50 years. Hammerl Amusements offers families an enjoyable experience with many rides, games and food items.

This year’s carnival will be held from June 8 through 11, with different activities held each night.  The annual Youth Parade will take place on Wednesday, June 8 beginning at 7 p.m.  Youth groups from across the community will march down Union Street into the Village of Spencerport. Young children will also march dressed in costumes.

Wednesday is also “Pay One Price Night”, where riders can ride all the attractions for just $18 with a coupon starting at 5 p.m. Live music will be provided by Spencerport’s own, John Akers, beginning at 8 p.m.

On Thursday, June 9, the annual Grand Firemen’s Parade kicks off at 7 p.m.  This year’s parade hosts organizations and fire departments from the community and surrounding towns and villages. On Friday, June 10, it’s live music featuring Karma beginning at  8 p.m.

Saturday, June 11, will prove to be a busy one during Family Fun Day. Riders can ride all the attractions for just $20 with a coupon from noon-close.  Live entertainment by Penny Whiskey will go from 2 to 6 p.m. The evening wraps up with live entertainment from Rochester favorite, Tryst, at 8 p.m.
