Mini Circus Stops By Shriners Hospital for Children

Performers in the Shriners Circus for Children this weekend came to their hospital earlier this week to entertain those children who cannot leave to watch the show. The performers definitely brightened the lives of so many children who enjoyed every moment of this mini circus. Here's one more look:

Not all children are able to attend the circus. So on March 29, the Shriners Circus came to the Children. This is the 70th year of the Shriners Circus in St. Louis and the 8th year it has performed at the Family Arena in St. Charles.

Members of the show and cast stopped by Shriners Hospital for Children in Frontenac for their own mini peformance. The elephants couldn't make the scene, but there were plenty of smiles to go around.

Perhaps the best medicine of all is a wide grin on the face of a young child. The circus will be in St. Charles tonight at 7 p.m.; Friday at7:30 p.m.; shows at 10 a.m., 2:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Saturday and 1 p.m. and 6 p.m. on Sunday.

Here are the sights and sounds from all the circus performers this year.
