The McDermott Family Shows' pirate-ship ride brought a big thrill to this group of riders on the Wednesday, April 13, opening of the carnival, kicking off the 2009 Orange City Tulip Festival for the kids and young at heart that thronged downtown Orange City. Photos from the festival from Thursday, May 14, through Saturday, May 16, may be found in the May 21 and May 28 issues of The Sioux County Capital-Democrat.
