FROM CAMPAIGN TO RESULTS: OUR MANY EQUIPMENT UPGRADES
You Gave, We Bought, Everyone Benefits!

You've probably already noticed when you look around Circus Center that MANY upgrades and improvements have happened since our New Net & Equipment Campaign last spring. Here are just some of the highlights:
  • Flying trapeze net, plus funds to install it and maintain it in the years ahead
  • Floor mats in the Theater
  • Floor mats in the Green Room
  • Panel mats (black, very stylish!)
  • Toilets (all of them!) in both restrooms
  • Hoop (on its way!)
  • Little but vital things like Therabands
  • Deep clean of the Main Gym
  • Reorganization of the Equipment Room
  • New lighting fixture in the lobby, with more improvements to come
  • Stilts! Lots of them!
And of course, a fun community event to celebrate all of this and the great spirit that makes Circus Center a treasure in the Bay Area.


REQUEST A CLASS FOR WINTER SESSION
Let Us Know What Would Help Advance Your Training

Planning for the Winter session is underway! So please let us know if there are particular classes, days, or times where we could make a schedule addition or adjustment that you'd like to see.  If you can organize a group of students who would commit to the new class, that's better. And if you've worked out a tentative plan with an instructor, that's the best of all!

Our goal is to offer classes that our community wants and needs in order to meet your training goals. And we do have space for additional classes, especially during the weekdays and on the weekends. So start talking with your fellow students and instructors now, and bring your ideas to Tracey Shababo, Program Manager. Thank you!
