A Family Affair At The Red River Valley Fair

The Red River Valley Fair is in full swing, and while there are always the classic fair rides, there are a few new ones too.
 
When the fair comes to town, you know where to find the Pearson family.
 
“I just like seeing the smiles on their face and the excitement when they get to do something fun,” says April Pearson of Casselton.
 
Smiles that wouldn’t be possible without their favorite fair rides and a few new ones too.
 
A brand new ride to this year’s fair is the XXL. A ride for only those who can stomach the ultimate tummy twister.
 
The Pearson boys can clearly handle any ride. But it’s the boys that the parents are trying to handle, especially when there’s five of them.
 
If you’re looking for a classic ride, don’t forget the bumper cars, and what fair wouldn’t be complete without a trip down the fun slide.
 
So make sure you’re fueling up because keeping up with these kids requires energy, enthusiasm and the much needed lung power.
 
Except of course if you’re riding in the stroller.
 
“He’s just sitting and observing,” says Pearson.
 
But not for long mom, pretty soon he’ll be joining the big boys too.
 
The fair runs through Sunday.
