BROWARD EVENT - SPECIAL EVENT BARNUM & BAILEY CIRCUS - 1/7/2011 96 members attended this special event. We gave away over 60 free tickets in conjunction with The Barnum Award. Nominated for creating The Kids Fishing Club, Ethan Rogge was honored with The Barnum Award. He received a gold medal plus a check for $1000 to fund the club. The Barnum Award celebrates children six to 12 who are making a difference in their communities and beyond. In honor of circus founder P.T. Barnum and his inspirational contributions to society, Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey will provide more than $150,000 in grants to children nationally, in conjunction with the two-year celebration of the 200th anniversary of Barnum's birth. Three local award recipients will be recognized at an award ceremony prior to the start of the opening night performance of Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Presents Barnum's FUNundrum! on January 7, 2011, at Miami's American Airlines Arena. The Gold Barnum Award recipient will receive a $1,000 grant, the Silver Barnum Award recipient will receive a $750 grant, and the Bronze Barnum Award recipient will receive a $500 grant to fund future community service endeavors. |
