Run Away to Smirkus for the Day!

*** ALL SESSIONS OF 2012 SMIRKUS CAMP ARE FULL! (Registration launched Nov. 1st and filled in less than one month!) Please call if you are interested in being on a waitlist for Sessions I - V. 802-533-7443, ext. 23. (The waitlists for Smirkling and Intro to Smirkus are closed.) ***

Into to Smirkus Camp is for any kid five to ten years old who wants a day-long introduction to the magic of circus camp, before leaping into an overnight camp experience. It's a great way to introduce the circus arts and our only camp option for kids as young as five years old. (Kids ages 6 - 9 can also enroll in Smirkling Camp, our two-day introductory sleepover camp.Kids ages 8-16 can register for one of our one- or two-week residential camps.).

One Magical Smirkus Day
Intro to Smirkus Camp begins at 8:30 am (with a quick registration) on Saturday, June 16 and concludes with a pie-throwing ceremony with family and friends at 4:00 pm. In one full day, kids get a real Circus Smirkus camp experience!

A Special Sampling of Skills
Intro to Smirkus campers get a chance to try all the basic circus skills: manipulations (scarves and spinning plates – the precursors to juggling), balance (low wire and rolling globe), aerials (Spanish web, Lyra, and static trapeze), tumbling (acrobatics), and lots and lots of clowning.

They even get a chance to "pie" the coaches, counselors AND their parents!

Of course, our usual strict safety procedures are always in full force.

Don't delay. Our camps fill up fast, starting in the Fall. Campers are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis and some camps fill quickly, so apply early to guarantee your place under the Big Top. Register online today or send your registration form by mail or fax with a non-refundable registration fee.

If you have any questions, email us, or call us at 802-533-7443, ext. 23.
