The Sig Sautelle Band Chariot, which was built by Sullivan and Eagle in Peru, IN in 1903, heads east to the Dublin, Ohio July 4th Parade tomorrow. Plans were to be horse drawn but that might not happen with the extreme heat.

This is another example of the Circus Hall of Fame on the road again.

After wanting this to happen for nearly 5 years, we finally got all of the electrical cords out of the way and moved three showcases in the Museum. This has made the barn look that much larger now.

Now with some new paint, we can start putting new displays back in place again.

Peru, Indiana was called the Circus Capitol of the World back in the 1920s. The Circus Hall of Fame celebrates this great legacy at the former American Circus Corporation winter quarters next Saturday from 10 am to 5 pm.

This is FREE for one and all. You'll get to see performers from the Peru Youth Circus, Jim Decker on the High Wire, Christian Loyal and family on their ba****ck riding horses, meet the Human Cannonball, Mr. Brian Miser, hear the amazing Peru Circus Band and listen to the striking notes from a steam calliope that called everyone to the circus lot.

We hope to see you there.
