SEVEN FIELDS — Seven Fields Community Days welcomed the borough’s residents and visitors alike at the Seven Fields Community Center at 4 p.m. Wednesday, June 3.

Nine carnival rides of varying sizes were set up at the event. Eight skill games like “ring toss” or “break a bottle” were present at the venue, as were seven food trucks offering carnival treats. Drinks from local vendors — Conny Creek, Dented Keg and The Smiling Moose — were also available.

“We have stuff here for everybody,” said Nicholas Polakovsky, general manager of C&L Shows, the family-owned company that put together the community event.

The crowds were thin early in the evening.

Polakovsky said this is typical. With many still returning from work on a weekday, the event usually starts off slowly. He said he expected better turnout by 7 p.m.

Polakovsky said he anticipates the biggest crowd on Saturday.

C&L Shows, of Mount Pleasant, first worked on community days in 2021, around the time the COVID-19 pandemic was coming to an end, Polakovsky said.

Over time, the event has grown in scale, according to Polakovsky. Attendance has gone up and likewise, more equipment has gone into organizing, he said.

“We’ve expanded onto the field instead of just the pavement,” said Polakovsky. “Every year, it gets a little bit bigger.”

The event will go through June 6 and will be open until 10 p.m. every evening. Tickets for rides are $4. Alternatively, attendees can purchase an all-day pass for $25.

Live music is slated every night starting 7 p.m. until closing and fireworks by Pyrotecnico will take place on Saturday at dusk.

“I hope the community can come together here and they can forget about the problems that we’re having in the world,” said Polakovsky. “It’s important that the community gets to do that here and spend some time together with their families.”

He said his team is careful to price their services with affordability for families in consideration.

“We know that due to economics, people are hurting,” he said, pointing to spikes in gas and grocery costs. “Our customers, they can expect to come here and not see any price increases from last year.”
