rides

It's been a long hard struggle, but it seems as though we're in the final stretch of getting ride sharing services like Uber and Lyft here in the Capital Region.

It's no secret. Huck Finn's Warehouse and More wants the rides from Hoffman's Playland. They're ready to invest most of the $1.8 million dollars it would cost to move the rides. There's even financial aid on the table, $650,000 combine worth of grants from the Industrial Development Agency (IDA), Empire State Development and National Grid...

OK, let's just get this out of the way right now. This ride, the Sky Tower, located at Tivoli Friheden in Denmark, is in no way a ride at all.

Wait.. you can almost smell it..  It soon will be fair time in the Capital Region.   Fried dough, sausage and peppers, cotton candy, will soon be waffling in the air, along with agricultural exhibits, animals, midway rides shows, attractions and games.   The Saratoga County Fair which begins on Tuesday is the first of many local fairs to open in the area.  We want to know what fair is the best?

Take a big wiff, it's that time of year again, fair time! The Altamont Fair - The Capital Regions Hometown fair representing Schenectady, Albany and Greene Counties starts Tuesday August 16th.  There are some new things and of course some old things, the fair has been in operation since 1893.
