WILKES-BARRE — Thousands will spend this week in Luzerne County eating cotton candy, watching tigers jump through hoops, and spending time with their families and it’s all for a good cause.

The Irem Shrine Circus is an event that keeps parents and kids coming back year after year.

If it’s Easter Monday in Luzerne County that means one thing: it’s time to transition from Easter bunnies to circus tigers, thanks to the Irem Shrine Circus.

The circus is back for its 64th year and Lee Ann Phillips of Wapwallopen is one of the thousands who also return every year to the 109th Armory with her family.

“It’s a great time. You could ask them.”
“Are you having a good time?”
“Yeah!”
She grew up coming to the circus on Easter Monday.
