Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, Children of all ages! Senior Education Ministries is proud to present the one, the only, the dazzling, the amazing, 3rd Annual Fraud and Scam Awareness Seminar:
“The Greatest Scam on Earth”
Continuing a longstanding American tradition that dates back more than 2 years, the “Greatest Scam On Earth” has a mandate to mesmerize, astound and entertain families with our human and animal performers in a colorful kaleidoscope of non-stop wonders! Our annual seminar this year will take on a 3-ring circus format designed to include members of the community interested in being entertained as well as making a difference. It will be the most amazing, jaw-dropping, undeniably entertaining show in town……………………..Under the Big Top of the Vigo County Fairgrounds from 9am-2pm with International Circus Hall of Fame Ringmaster John Fugate ( Bronze Medalist as 3rd Best Ringmaster in the World, Honoree: Circus Fans of America, Honoree: Circus Historical Society; Actor: Big Fish-Sideshow Barker; Indianapolis 500 Speedway Ranking Old-timer’s Member; and Board Member of International Circus Hall of Fame). This guy’s COOL!
In Ring Number 1… we have secured these Greatest entertainers of all time…. Federal Bureau of Investigation agents, and Linda Carmody (President and CEO of the Better Business Bureau). Two other guest speakers are pending. And in our center ring, we draw your attention to the age defying acts of our own Wabash Senior Activity Center performing for your enjoyment.
For our next stunt feast your eyes on Ring Number 2… you’ll be able to enjoy complimentary lunch ("Cotton candy! Popcorn! Snow cones! Soda pop! Hot dogs!" "Right this way, Ladies and Gentlemen, right this way! Don't be afraid to step right up!" "Get your Souvenir Programs here! Get 'em while they last!" "Souvenirs! Balloons!" "Peanuts! Hot roasted peanuts! Get 'em right here!" "Ladies and Gentlemen, and Children of all Ages, the Greatest Scam on Earth is about to begin!
Hurry, Hurry, step right up…..A crowd of 300+ vendors and industry professionals will converge on the scene to be entertained and engaged. The Main Event under The Big Top will include food, door prizes, extraordinary performances and brilliant artwork courtesy of the Vigo School Corporation students. All sponsors are expected to be ARTISTICALLY CIRCUS CONSCIOUS and interested in spreading an eco-friendly message.
There will be complimentary t-shirts to the first 1000 seniors (first come first serve basis)
There will be NO charge for our guests to COME RUN AWAY WITH US TO THE CIRCUS. Vendors will not have to pay as well, but will be requested to bring a door prize for the senior’s to win. Vendors will be requested to set up their side shows on 5/11/2009 so they can spend the entire day “clowning around” on 5/12/09. The circus will begin promptly at 9am and will commence until 2pm. Side show barkers will be asked to submit a copy of their insurance in the event of loose hefalumps and woozles.
