CIRCUS COMMING TO GRANITE SHOALS

Trained elephants will be one of the main attractions at the Carson & Barnes Circus, which will be in Granite Shoals on Monday, Nov. 15.

Event to benefit Andy Roddick Foundation tennis center

The Andy Roddick Foundation has announced it will host the 74th edition of the Carson & Barnes Circus on Monday, Nov. 15 in Granite Shoals.

Show times will be at 4:30 and 7:30 p.m. at RR 1431 and Phillips Ranch Road to help raise funds to build the Andy Roddick Foundation (ARF) International Tennis Center in Granite Shoals.

Carson & Barnes Circus is the only remaining one big-tent circus operating today in America. They travel with their city-block long tent, almost hundred performers and animals to some 200 towns and cities each ten-month season. While many circuses have reduced their size and schedule, Carson & Barnes is still the only organization capable of moving such a large show to a new site each day, sponsors said.
