CRESTVIEW — The fair is in town!

James Gang Amusements LLC is hosting the event, which is 6 p.m. nightly through March 12 at Old Spanish Trail Park.

Parking and admission are free. Arm bands for rides cost $15 per person Wednesday and Thursday, and $20 on weekends. Coupons available at businesses throughout town offer $3 off the armband price.

The types of rides available include swings, a boat ride called the Sea Ray and a scrambler. "It's like an egg beater. It spins around with tubs on it," Rodney James of James Amusements LLC said.

There is also a merry-go-round, ferris wheel, roller coaster, and a mechanical bucking bull.

Foods usually associated with a fair will be available for purchase.

"We have funnel cakes, corn dogs ,cotton candy, apples, snowcones, pizza," James said.

This is not the James brothers' first visit to Crestview. "We used to come all the time," James said. "We quit for about three or four years and now we've come back."

"Come out and have fun!" Dwayne James, his brother, said.

The park is located on Stillwell Boulevard.
