Default Meet Smirky

My name is Don (Smirky).I started clowing around with the Shriners about 1 year ago. I had no idea how much fun it is to make little ones smile and laugh. I am in need of a lot of help to learn how to do it right and not scare or frighten the little ones.(some times the big ones to).I have learned to do some small magic tricks but am limited and desire to learn more.I did a small show this last year for about 150 childern while I was doing some misinary work in Mex. My spanish is very limited but I was able to get a few laughs. I would like to be able to communitcate in such a way that I would be able to tell the story of Jesus and not have to count on my spanish. I spend abuot 6 months in Mex. per year.

Welcome to the Clown Forum. This is a great place to meet other clowns and get ideas to become a better clown. I hope you stick around and join in on some of the discussions.

Hi Smirky ... I also had the pleasure of meeting you, but you may not remember. It's nice to have you on Clown Forum. We laugh with each other, help each other, you may get a pie once in awhile, but it's a great place to hang out.
