The tents go up early on Friday. The circus tents were once erected with the help of elephants, but now the work is done by men.
The annual event, sponsored by the Wilmington Jaycees, started Friday and continues today and Sunday on the grounds at 487 E. Chestnut Hill Road in Newark. Shows are today at 1:30, 4:30 and 7:30 p.m. and on Sunday at 1:30 and 4:30 p.m.
