When the Pacific National Exhibition (PNE) opened earlier this month in Vancouver, Jessica Barney Lee and Calin McCarthy of Port Alberni were among the first wave of people to check out the brand new Thundervolt coaster.
The Thundervolt features an 18-metre drop, among other fear-defying items.
The annual PNE Fair, B.C.'s largest ticketed event, runs now through Labour Day and features rides, unique food, and hundreds of free-with-admission shows and exhibits.
