Clown Camp Ends in 2009

Posted January 5th, 2009 by Richard Snowberg

After finishing our 29th year of providing Clown Camp this June in La Crosse, Wisconsin, we will not be continuing this program.  It is our intention to provide periodic programs outside of the United States. Likewise we may produce some shorter programs with specific themes or content throughout the coming years. For example we may be returning to Florida to offer another caring clown focused program in conjunction with Give Kids the World. However we will not continue to offer the wide scope programs with 20 or more staff members so many have come to enjoy.

As a result of our decision to discontinue the program we expect to very quickly have a sold out program in June. Currently we have less than 100 spots left for registrants to be accommodated in university housing. If you wish to participate, don’t wait much longer to register.

We do intend to make some changes in this summer’s program so that we can share highlights, stories and images from the past 29 years. Our plans are to lengthen the evening sessions with more special features.  Keep revisiting this website for more exciting developments.
