You're
on your way, Kid!
*** 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.) ***
Session IV is for campers
ages 10 to 17 who have previously attended
our circus camp for at least two sessions,
or who have prior circus training which meets
the skill level required.
Enrollment of all campers is at the discretion
of the Camp Co-Directors.
Here's How
New applicants to Session IV
(those who've not previously attended Smirkus
Camp), need to submit with their registration,
a note outlining their prior circus training
and detailing their circus skills.
Campers in this session will receive instruction
in all the different areas of circus arts (click
here for a list of skills taught at Smirkus
Camp). Campers will spend more time training
in the tents and start off at a higher skill
level than in the Smirkus
Camp Sessions I - III .
A Day in the
Life
Campers train for 5-6 hours each full day of
camp. 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 with awards for the most original
or creative outfits. Evening activities include
movie night, staff talent show, and much more
with a dance on the final night.
The first Saturday of the session is a day
off from training and is spent away from camp
at a local beach (if weather permits), or visiting
an area attraction.
Show Time
During the second week of camp, training continues
and work begins on creating an awesome circus
show to perform for the campers' families and
friends. The show takes place on the last day
of camp, which is a Friday, in the late afternoon.
Don't delay. 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.

us, or call us at 802-533-7443, ext. 23.
