Photos show scenes of the traveling carnival which comes annually to Wakefield. In 2008, Fanelli's Traveling Theme Park took place on Main Street in the Galvin Middle School parking lot next to the Americal Civic Center from Tuesday through Saturday of April school vacation week. The carnival offered several traditional thrill rides, some for young children, including a Ferris wheel, slide, and merry-go-round. A traditional midway offered popcorn, candied apples, fried dough, and hot dogs, as well as games of chance where players could win toys and prizes.
