The Circus Comes to Town!
The Arlise Troupe and their unicycle skills were fast and frantic.
The Culpepper and Merriweather Circus is truly a rare breed. While circuses were widespread during the first half of the twentieth century, they declined rapidly over the second half to the point that many touring circuses closed permanently, reduced their size and combined with other circuses, or took up permanent residencies.
The C&M Circus is one of the few touring circuses on the circuit, and visits over 200 towns across the country in 17 states, for 32 weeks of the year. Soda Springs has been one of those stops for a number of years. If you haven’t been to a circus in many years, or possibly ever, the quality and professionalism of the Culpepper and Merriweather Circus might astonish and delight you, as they say in the business.
