The Càirde circus 2001 , need I say anymore !! .

 If you missed it ha ha ! but if you were there I’m sure you’ll agree It was the best weekend you’ve had all summer .

On Friday evening each group set up their own miniature Big Tops and lazed around ‘till the early hours of the morning , but didn’t we pay the price for it when the horns were blown at 8:00 am and the circus acts began .There was everything from tight rope walking , knife throwing to walking on stilts and riding mono cycles .

Then that night was the campfire - obviously circus theme , thhe costumes this year were great and we had all sorts of characters ; ringmasters , clowns , and a man in a spandex suit - bet that hurt .

Next morning , up cooked the fry or rob someone elses.

We built catapults on the pioneering base and had a big pie fight , that was tasty . we tried flying our hot air balloons but they kinda didn’t work .

Finally the BBQ and closing ceremony, Congratulations to the winners Enniskillen and the runners up and a special thanks to Susie Lynam and her crew for a great camp .

Slàn ,
