Thomas Carnival employees take pride in operating safely. Experience and training combine with maintenance and daily inspections to create a safe environment.

Staff members attend seminars to keep up to date with the trends. Communication with amusement ride manufacturers and state and federal regulators gives us the latest information we need to know.

We maintain a winter quarters in Austin, Texas, where annual maintenance is performed. A full service maintenance shop is carried on the road. The shop is stocked with tools and repair parts.

All employees participate in the daily inspection process. Each attraction is carefully checked prior to daily opening. Written reports document the inspections. Operations employees and their supervisors constantly check the equipment throughout the day.

In 2004, the Thomas Carnival was evaluated by the OABA Quality Assessment Team and met the rigorous standards required for entry into the prestigious Circle of Excellence. Recertification is required every two years. After evaluation in 2006, Thomas Carnival maintained membership in the Circle of Excellence.
