In 1908, Charles Brodbeck was fascinated that people would ride a horse to town and pay a nickel to ride a wooden horse. He bought a carousel and the family built one of the largest family carnivals in the nation. The Center preserves the traditions of the family carnival, salutes famous carnival individuals and provides a nostalgic look at a form of entertainment from a simpler time in American life. Located at 200 E. 6th in Kinsley, see a very unique Carousel where the animals were designed by children from Kansas. Drop in any time or schedule a tour by contacting: John Ploger at Fireside Realty (620) 659-2011 or Fred Burgess at the Ed. Co. Economic Development & Chamber (620) 659-2711.
