The World's Largest Circus Under The Big Top is Coming to Newark August 24, 25 & 26!

SEE AMAZING FEATS FROM RINGSIDE SEATS!

In addition to acrobats, denizens of clown alley and daredevil aerial artists, the 2007 edition of Cole Bros. Circus of the Stars features more than a score of educated animal performers, including elephants, horses and poodles who have as much fun performing as audiences have watching them. What you see will astonish you, but what you don’t notice is equally amazing.
 

With eyes focused on the “Biggest Stars on the Planet” and lovely elephant rider, Jessica Kramer in petite contrast to her massive mount, circus patrons witness pachyderms Tina and Jewel command the spotlight. Seldom do they note trainer Will Jacobs, who stands quietly in the shadows while his oversized pupils dominate the ring. Will feels comfortable assuming the role of “most forgettable performer” at the Cole Bros. Circus. “People come to see the elephants, not me,” says Jacobs, “and Tina and Jewel not only know their routine but love to perform on their own, so I let them!”
 

Equestrian expert Lyuba Tchepiakova schools her equine students to refrain from exhibiting one natural behavior while in the ring. “Putting it delicately, we teach them to go to the bathroom before they enter the Big Top!” While viewing the Abuhadbas’ assortment of energetic poodles ranging from miniatures to standards, audiences don’t consider the enormous amount of effort and time invested in making the poodles picture-perfect for their turn in the ring. Dog grooming is a full time job in itself for the Abuhadba family. More than a dozen poodles share living quarters with the Abuhadbas, enjoying a carpeted, outdoor exercise yard that moves from town to town. “Training the dogs is the easy part,” claims Isabel Abuhadba, “as they learn quickly, remember everything, and enjoy showing off and earning praise, not to mention treats!

Volunteers: How to Help...
THE CIRCUS IS COMING August 24, 25 & 26!!  And we need your help in order to make this year's circus a success! 
 
Here's how YOU can help:
 
1) Distribute posters and discount coupons to local merchants.  This is a huge publicity help for us leading up to circus weekend.  Most local stores (and gyms, grocery stores, dry cleaners, etc) will gladly display our circus posters and discount coupons.  So please get a few to distribute NOW to your regular errand stops.  Call me to get posters.
 
2) Sell tickets at Save On Sneaks one evening.  Advance tickets are on sale at Save on Sneaks in Newark (College Square Shopping Center), and we man the ticket tables the week leading up to the big weekend.  It's fun, and the store really appreciates our help.  Call me to sign up for an evening, 6-9 pm at either store.
 
3) Help with parking the weekend of the circus.  We have 2 shows on Friday, 3 shows on Saturday, and 2 on Sunday.  So we need help from everyone to get the cars in and out of the shows.  No training required, you get to watch the show if you'd like, food and drink (and pretty orange flags)provided!!  Please call me to work at least one show during the weekend.

4) Tell your friends and co-workers, especially those with children, about the circus.  Word of mouth is a great way to publicize the event.
 
PLEASE HELP US MAKE THIS YEAR'S CIRCUS A HUGE SUCCESS!
