There’s always something exciting happening when the circus comes to town.
There’s always something exciting happening when the circus comes to town.
In this case, it is the Cole Bros. Circus of the Stars setting up at the Garfield High School Athletic Field. Sponsored by the Garfield Local PBA #46, the circus arrived in town late last night. By this morning, the huge brightly colored tent was erected and visible from many points. They had rolled in from Kingston, NY the night before to play this four day spot. Sunday night, the tent will come down and the circus will be on the move again.
Meeting Dan Baltulonis, Senior Marketing Director, we discussed circuses, their acts and travelling. Dan took www.ParamusPost.com on a tour of the facilities as they look before the show is ready. This included a sleeping Bengal tiger, waiting elephants and ponies, dogs, llamas, the huge cannon and some of the props before we went into the spacious indoor tent which afforded almost completely unobstructed views.
The ticket office was open (10 AM – 8 PM) and a slow but steady stream of wishful circus-goers were seen at the window. With shows starting Thursday and Friday at 4:30 and 7:30, Saturday at 1:30, 4:30 an 7:30 and concluding on Sunday at 1:30 and 4:30, there are plenty of choices.
Cole Bros Circus of Stars is owned by John Pugh, a longtime friend, who stays in the winterquarters these days. The circus claim to fame is that it is the World’s largest circus under the Big Top and has been in existence since 1884. John and I do not go back that far!www.gotothecircus.com , www.tickets.com or www.freekidstickets.com will connect you!
