The Russell County Jaycee Fair Ran
From June 23-28, 2003
|
|
|
During my visit there was a lot of
equestrian activity in the arena with local competitors of all
ages. |
|
|
|
The Reverchon Himalaya need a touch of
paint, but the classic lighting poles around the ride's edge
still drew in the teen and tween riders for a spin. |
|

|
The one-trailer Mulligan Sea Ray anchored
one end of the midway. With its colorful lights and wide
appeal guests of all ages were going for a ride. Much like
the Sea Ray, the Eli Bridge Hy-5 wheel had a lot of different
riders on it, but was often a parent and child spinning through
the night air together. |

|
The Watkins Swinger is a classic from
carnivals of "days gone by" that was drawing in kids
of all ages. Few things says a country fair like this ride
with its flags whipping in the wind. |

|
The slide and carousel
provided a great backdrop as the nighttime crept in. On
these nights the afternoon slips into darkness without most kids
noticing. |
