Fun at the fair
Chris Yerlig of Massachusetts stands as a human statue called the "Copper Cowboy" at the Upper Missouri Valley Fair in this photo by Roger Riveland. Kids gathered round after seeing it was a human in an attempt to make Yerlig move. Yerlig surprised everyone with how long he could remain motionless and not blink. The fair has existed for more than 100 years in Williston and is the official Williams County fair.
Kids and parents took part in a burrito skin flipping contest at the game show, “Kids Celebration” at the Upper Missouri Valley Fair in Williston, in this photo by Roger Riveland. Adults put a swim flipper on their foot and flipped a burrito skin to the other person to catch on a paper plate, then place it on their head. Contestants were divided into teams. The fair ran from June 21-25.
