Circus Arts Intro to Circus

Ages 6–8

Run away and join the circus with us! Under the instruction of circus specialists and highly trained staff, campers will engage in several circus activities such as acrobatics, clowning, spinning plates, tight wire and more. Campers will also engage in a half day of traditional camp activities like arts and crafts and active games for a well-rounded camp experience. 

Please Note: Each session (except 5A) wraps up with an Open House circus performance on Thursday starting at 12pm (noon) with music and costumes. Due to 5A being a one-week session, our Open House will act as a show-and-tell rather than a formal performance. Campers will be scheduled to go to the splash pad on the last Friday of a session (weather permitting).
