Kids Zone

Inflatables and Carnival Rides
This year’s Kid’s Zone will be packed full of inflatables and carnival rides to entertain kids of all ages all day long! Among the attractions this year are an obstacle course and a giant slide. For the little ones, there are smaller inflatables such as a Bounce House. And, for the “big kids”…there is the Bungee Run and the Loop!

Petting Zoo
A new feature to the River-Cade/KCAU Kids Zone this year is a petting zoo. The Meyer Petting Zoo, a family owned business out of Holstein, Iowa, is bringing a pen full of cute, furry animals. The zoo consists of mainly farm animals. There will be goats (one named Dave), sheep, rabbits, maybe some baby chicks, and miniature donkeys. The biggest attraction seems to be the Jacob sheep, Hornet. He has 4 horns that seem to amaze everyone he meets. There will be babies for the kids to enjoy. Kids can buy ice cream cones filled with pellets to feed the animals for 50 cents. Admission is FREE. The petting zoo will be open from Noon to 5pm.

Mr. Twister (http://www.mrtwister.org)
A popular performer in the Rivercade/KCAU Kid’s Zone each year, Mr. Twister is back once again armed with fun and balloons! Mr. Twister’s wife, Ms. Twist, will also be joining in the fun. For the past 9 years, Mr. Twister has entertained children at Saturday In The Park with his wacky assortment of balloons. Make sure to bring the young ones up the visit Mr. Twister & Ms. Twist and ask for a crazy balloon sculpture!

MagicMan
Sioux Cityan Corey Fravel is like a machine gun of tricks. He attends Sioux City’s own West High School. Corey performs interactive card tricks and sleight–of-hand “Street Magic” right in front of any and all that gather around. Your kids may have seen Corey perform last year at Saturday in the Park, or at their school thanks to Beyond the Bell. In addition to shows for “older” audiences, he will also perform this summer at the Woodbury County Fair. Come visit Corey as he will entertain children, and parents, as they spend time in the Kid’s Zone!”

Team Mascots
Also this year, kids can meet some of our local sporting team mascots. They will be able to meet the Sioux City Musketeer hockey mascot “Charlie Battle” (at 1pm), the Sioux City Bandit’s Football mascot “Slinger” (at 2pm) and also members of the Sioux City Rollerdames (at 3pm) and the Sioux City Kornstalkers (at 4pm) roller derby’s. They will be walking around the Kids Zone between the hours of 1pm and 5pm.
