Update: From the organizer Jeff Wainwright: "THANK YOU! The 38th Annual 'Help Santa Toy Parade' was a tremendous success! Thanks to all the parade participants, volunteers and all the spectators who came out to show their support for such a worthy cause. The weather was fantastic and we had a record turnout this year.

Flying Karamazov Brothers Crisis - Nanaimo Park Jugglers To The Rescue!

As you may know the Flying Karamazov Brothers performed their orchestra show at the National Arts Center (Ottawa) June 5,6&7 2003 - and it was GREAT - but not before they had a minor crisis with their props being delayed at the border! Roderick Kimball (one of the "Brothers") gave our own managing juggler Carl Roth a call to see if we could help them out and of course we could! We delivered 24 clubs to the NAC prior to their afternoon rehearsal much to the relief of FKB! To show their gratitude they gave us 3 extra tickets for the Thursday show that we were already attending and after the show invited us back stage for autographs and photos!

Note:

1. Check out the new " Press Gallery " to see our media coverage!
2. With summer over the Juggling Jams will be outside in Nanaimo Park until it gets dark then they will move inside if there is interest. If inclement weather the Jam will be in the community center.
3. See you there and don't forget to bring those unicycles!
