Fort Wayne, IN--It was a full house Thursday morning at the Memorial Coliseum as the Mizpah Shrine Circus entertained area school children for the 67th year.
Acrobats soared through the air to the gasps and applause of elementary students from around the area. Last year bad weather had canceled the student performance, but Thursday morning the Coliseum looked nearly full to capacity. There will be another school performance Friday morning as well. Students were treated to motocross, high wire, clowns, and tigers , just to mention a few of the many acts. There will be performances for the public as well through Sunday.

The Mizpah Shrine Circus is in town and Thursday morning elementary students from around the area got a chance to go to the show. During intermission children were entertained by clowns making balloon animals. The kids all wanted one, and a lucky few were granted their wish by Fuzzy the Clown.
