Through the years the show has updated and purchased new equipment and
concessions. We now own more than thirty rides and numerous game and food
concession stands. Gillette Shows most recently redecorated all of their ticket boxes with new more
attractive signage, new stainless steel counters and a new sound system that providesall of the pertinent facts as to ride costs. The Slide and Rainbow Rock were alsocompletely refurbished. Also in order to comply with Massachusetts new safety
codes Gillette Shows has changed their living quarters to include exits on both
sides, windows large enough to escape from, fire extinguishers, and hand rails
along the steps. The show is now operated by Betty Gillette who oversees the operation and her
sons Jerry and Jules (Mims) who take care of all of the setup and running of the
show. During their off season when they are not refurbishing or updating their
equipment, the Gillette family owns a bowling alley as well as a trailer rental business. You will find Gillette Shows playing such fairs as the Broome County Fair, Otsego
County Fair, Herkimer County Fair, Cumberland Fair and Center Sandwich Fair,
just to name a few. They play spots all throughout Pennsylvania, New York.the New England states. |
