The Moment it Happened to Me 

---

I became a clown after seeing the local clowns in a parade. It reminded of my youth and I remembered how seeing the parade clowns made me feel. I knew it was something I had to do. I joined the clown alley (club) immediately. The clowns I have met throughout my experience have been wonderful. Providing support, answering questions, sharing their experience and skills, and just being good friends! I wish I would have thought of doing this sooner! But I was truly surprised to find out how much work it takes to be a clown. And I don't know a single clown that has stopped working at being a better clown. (and don't you just love to watch them!)
