Doreen Arwood loves the circus, but it's the show just outside the “big top” that never fails to entertain her.
“My favorite thing is watching the big rigs come down Five Mile and watching them come in and set up,” said Arwood, president of the Redford Jaycees, one of several Metro Detroit civic groups that will sponsor circus shows next week. “Monday morning between 6-7 a.m. they'll be in. They start setting up as soon as they have everything in. At about 8:30 a.m., the elephants raise the tent.
“I'm amazed how the circus people work together to raise it.”
