EQUAL ACCESS

This guide provides an overview of the services and facilities we offer to our patrons with disabilities and special needs. If you have any questions, one of our staff will be happy to help you.

Disabled Access:
At the KPC Fair, we seek diligently to provide access for all visitors. We actively try to increase the ease of access for patrons with disabilities throughout the fairgrounds.  Our staff will be happy to answer questions about access. Please do not hesitate to ask a staff member for assistance.

Carnival Rides:
State Law requires that carnival owners enforce manufacturer ride participation restrictions such as age and height limitations. These are clearly marked at each ride entrance. Each person who desires to participate at an activity should evaluate their own health condition and the thrills and risks that they are willing to assume. No person should participate in any recreational activity unless they feel confident that they have the ability to meet the posted attraction requirements. We take seriously our role to provide a safe and enjoyable experience for all that attend the fairgrounds. Safety is our first concern. We also desire that all who feel capable of participating on the rides and other attractions be given equal opportunity depending upon their own interests and capabilities.

Our staff and the other independent vendors staffs, including the carnival ride staff, are happy to help you with advice on specific access to any special ride. They cannot make decisions for you, as no one knows your health conditions better than you do. They are not permitted to lift a patron into or out of a ride, nor can they waive posted ride rules, which are required by State Law.

Assistance Dogs:
Assistance dogs are welcome provided they remain on a leash at all times. Unfortunately, assistance dogs are not permitted to accompany patrons on rides due to safety reasons. A member of your party must remain with the animal at all times.  Assistance dogs are defined as all dogs used as guide dogs, hearing dogs and service dogs that are used for mobility and other physical or psychological disabilities.  Owners are responsible for cleaning up after their animals.

Parking:
We have parking spaces reserved for our patrons with disabilities. They are in close proximity to all admission gate entrances for easy access. Please display your ID placard in your vehicle's windshield before parking in any parking space for people with disabilities.

Restrooms:
Wheelchair-accessible public restrooms are available on the fairgrounds.

Wheelchairs:
Rent wheelchairs and powered scooters on a first come, first served basis at each admission gate. They cannot be booked in advance. Driver’s license required and held as deposit.
