I was so busy at the circus this year. I didn’t stop to take one picture. Kelly took this picture. only two days left for our full meal service in the restaurant. we are going to be looking for a cook for our restaurant next summer. Probably the hardest part of the job is it is a requirement to give up your weekends from May through September with only couple of them off. one of the best parts of the job though is the employee housing. DM if interested

Wow, what a great circus. Thank you for everyone who helped make this such a special event . Thank you to sponsors  Little Wood pest control and Seth Woodward for helping with the band entertainment. A special thanks goes out to all of the musicians who pretty much donate their time to make an event like this happen. The bar and restaurant are gonna be open this weekend with our normal hours and next Friday and Saturday too. After that, we’re taking a short break and coming back with our bar being open on Sundays only for the month of October. if you haven’t heard, we have a winter cabin available for rent with running water for $500 a month, but the lease ends in March 27.

I finally got the schedule sorted out for the bands weather depending.

This weekend the circus returns to East magic. 14 bands over two days. Lots of original music with some bands playing all originals. Affordable food and drink (some beers only $4 ) free camping. I've heard of local festivals charging 12$ for a coors light. $25 donation to the bands. Come to one of the few festivals in idaho where the music is the priority not the amount of money we make.
