At Morey’s Piers guests can compete in the Strong Man Challenge or test sports skills with the Three Point Challenge, Soccer Challenge and Hockey Challenge.
The IAAPA Brass Ring Awards annually recognize achievements of excellence and innovations throughout the global attractions industry. The accolades received its name from a tradition dating back to the 1800s in which carousel riders endeavored to grasp one of the few brass rings located next to the ride to receive a prize. The IAAPA Brass Ring Awards are considered one of the global attractions industry’s most prestigious honors.
