exactly which events actually get the Powers Pantheon Wheel. They play some pretty big events that do not seem to get that wheel such as Gaithersburg and Allentown. So who does?

I am guessing that Raleigh gets the wheel at the state fair. Does it mostly sit racked, or set up long term somewhere. Thanks

It usually plays Rhinebeck, NY but apparently not this year from what I've been told. Probably lack of help to move it. They reportedly have the new Spider wheel there.

I saw the spider wheel at The Big Butler Fair earlier this year. They call it "Itsy Bitsy". Beautiful ride.
They had room on the midway at Butler to put up 2 or 3 more major rides, but a person I know with a grab joint there told me they didn't have the help to run any more rides.

With the new spider wheel, not using Parthenon wheel except for Raleigh.
