Worlds of Fun Cutting Back Due to Staffing Shortages It's not just in our local area, Worlds of Fun in Kansas City is also feeling the pinch of staffing shortages as they cut back their days of operation this month. This is probably a sign of the times that will last for awhile, but everyone is hoping that it will take care of itself in the upcoming days and weeks. The staffing shortage at businesses across the country has caught up with one of the big vacation destinations in the Midwest. If Tuesdays and Wednesdays in June were in your plans for the amusement park this summer, you'll need to revisit your itinerary. Worlds of Fun will be closed those two days the rest of June due to the staffing shortage.
