Dreams Really Do Come True
Smirkus Camp is for campers ages 8 to 16 at beginning to developing skill level. (For younger campers ages 6 to 9, see Smirkling Camp.)

Smirkus Camp Sessions I, II & III are ideal for kids who are new to circus camp and for returning campers who want to learn new tricks.

Oh the Fun You will Have!
Each camp session is a fun-filled introduction to the circus arts. No experience is necessary! Campers with previous circus experience will also find these sessions challenging as they expand on their skills.

The atmosphere at Smirkus Camp is casual and non-competitive, but we encourage setting realistic goals and striving for accomplishment. We emphasize the concentration and commitment required to pursue any art form, and the self-discipline needed to reach goals. Our goal is to teach circus skills while providing a unique and meaningful life experience each child will cherish.

A Day in the Life
Campers train for 5 hours each full day of camp (two-week campers take one day off for R & R). Late afternoon is recreation time with games, arts & crafts and other traditional camp activities, followed by free time in the dorms.

Dinner dress for campers and staff is theme-oriented (super-heroes, Halloween night, etc.; participation is optional) with awards for the most original or creative outfits. Evening activities include movie night, staff talent show, etc. with a dance on the final night of camp.

One-week sessions end on Saturday morning with campers giving a demonstration of their skills to family and friends. The two-week session ends with a circus show for family and friends in the afternoon on Friday, the last day of camp.

Don't delay. Our camps fill up fast, starting in the Fall. Register online today or send your registration form by mail or fax with a non-refundable registration fee.
