Silly Sally The Clown

Hope you had a wonderful Christmas and I wish you a very happy new year. I spent Christmas with my Mom and some other friends and we enjoyed a quiet time just relaxing. Other family members will be coming here soon so will enjoy the sounds of excited children once again. I also spent Christmas Eve day ringing the Salvation Army bell at a local grocery store. In addition to ringing the bell, I sang Christmas carols as folks rushed in and out of the store. It was fun to observe people’s reactions as some began singing along or smiled and others did not even seem to notice or care that an elf was singing as they entered the store. It is one of my goals in life to put smiles on faces as people just do not smile and laugh enough. So, getting into a costume and singing just seems as natural to me as breathing fresh air. Should you be interested in seeing me in a costume, I sing, dance and play along with many folks doing singing telegrams all year long. Just check out my website for more information: Silly Sally Singing Telegrams

One of the Christmas gifts I have enjoyed so far is a book by Terry Fator entitled, “Who’s the Dummy Now?” Some of you might remember Terry as the winner of America’s Got Talent a couple years ago. He is a ventriloquist so naturally I have enjoyed reading his accounts of his life and fulfilling his dream to be a full-time professional performer as this is certainly something I hope continue to strive towards. The book is a good read about his struggles growing up and how this helped him work harder to become the professional entertainer he is today.

Well, I wish you a very Happy New Year. I shall be working two gigs that day/night so will fill get you caught up in 2009. Blessings!

I have been super busy in Iowa the last few weeks of summer. I performed at the Iowa State Fair, Wall Lake Farm Festival, at many birthday parties and have been busy taking my KangaKids FunBus to area daycare centers. In addition, I helped judge 4-H projects at the Iowa State Fair for several days. It sure was a pleasure to evaluate so many exhibits by young people from across Iowa as well as help kids who were performing in Share The Fun.(Talent Show) Summer is slowly coming to an end with the kids heading back to school this week and fall is just around the corner. If you would like to learn how you can have me come to your special event, birthday party, school or daycare center, be sure to check out my website: sillysallytheclown.com

Silly Sally is busy this week at the Page County fair in Clarinda, Iowa.  She is performing three stage shows each day and entertaining fair goers with her balloon creations.  To learn more about Silly Sally’s  stage entertainment, check out her website: www.sillysallytheclown.com

Silly Sally and Giggles entertained kids of all ages with face painting, balloon twisting and with Silly Sally’s Jump A Roo bounce house for the City of Ames Electric Services open house.   A huge crowd enjoyed touring the City of Ames Electric power plant eating a great lunch and receiving bucket rides by city employees.  This annual event was held on a beautiful windy day and fun and educational opportunities were had by all who attended.

Silly Sally and Sparky the clowns entertained at Jordan Creek Town Center on Tuesday evening August 28th. Children enjoyed Silly Sally’s balloon creations and Sparky’s face painting designs along with many inflatable games and other activities outside near the water.   Dino O’ Dell, children’s musician, from Kansas City was also on hand to entertain families.  This was the last of many Tuesday evenings over the summer that Joradan Creek Town Center provided free family entertainment.
