NORTH PLATTE, Neb - The first day of North Platte's Cody Park amusement rides is coming up this Friday, and for the 7th year in a row, Chad and Rhonda Fosdick and their company's Premier Rental, Glass Doctors and Mr. Appliance will offer the community Free Rides from 5-9pm Friday evening to kick off the summer at North Platte's largest park. Chad Fosdick says "we're all a tight knit family (Premier Rental, Glass Doctors, Mr. Appliance employees), but we vary rarely can all get together because we're all out working and helping customers." He says that "selfishly it's a way for us to all get together and do an event together, then you couple that with it's Cody Park free rides; it's even better."
In addition to the free rides, the Cody Park Concessions stand will be open with it's famous ice cream and Dusty Trails will be there with their petting zoo.
