Children can enjoy a variety of rides at the 2014 Benton County Fair through Saturday night.

A small roller coaster, and a similar ride that goes forward and backwards, along with the Ferris Wheel and spinning apples, offer a variety of ways for children (and adults) to enjoy themselves.

Many participated in the "four-hour special" wristband night on Thursday, paying $20 for four hours of unlimited rides. Look for more four-hour specials throughout the week from Sam's Amusement and Carnivals. The wristband hours are from 6-10 p.m. Friday and Saturday.
