The Berry Go Round spins again! The ride will temporarily return to Riverfront on Memorial Day, May 28 and remain open for several weeks or a few months, depending on popularity.

The Park Board voted to keep two amusement rides – the Berry Go Round and the Spider – from the former amusement section of the park.

The Skate Ribbon will remain open for roller skating all summer long. It’s one of many summer activities happening on the south bank of Riverfront.
