Get your 2009 Pima County Fair ride tickets early and you can save.
The fair runs April 16-26 at the Pima County Fairgrounds, 11300 S. Houghton Road, but discounted ride tickets are on sale through April 16 at Fry’s Food Stores, said Launa Rabago, a fair spokeswoman.
You can get 10 rides for $10, a 70 percent discount from regular tickets. The discounted ride tickets can be used only on weekdays.
Admission is $7 for adults, $2 for ages 6 through 10, and free for ages 5 and younger. Parking is $5.
Opening day will be free until 3 p.m. with two cans of unopened food.
Children who read three books and write a report will get a free carnival ride as part of the “Read and Ride” program throughout the fair, Rabago said.
