The following is from the State Fair walking tour brochure:
"Kidway"
"Created 1963, moved 1993, renamed 1995"
"Then: Adults have had a carnival area at the fair since 1904. It wasn't until 1963 when Kiddieland was added that children had a place to call their own. Outgrowing its space outside of the main carnival, Kiddieland moved to Machinery Hill in 1993. In 1995, both areas were revamped and renamed the Mighty Midway and Kidway, which showcased 67 independently booked rides, plus games and concessions - a 'profound departure' from anything seen before at the fair."
"Now: Today the Kidway is a family-friendly area where children can experience smaller rides geared just for them and parents can enjoy watching the fun."
