Up Up Up Circus entertained islanders of all ages

Islanders packed into the fairgrounds to watch the Up Up Up Circus. This was at least their second time to San Juan Island, and they gained a reputation for their amazing aerial acts.

They also entertained the crowd with music, humor and dazzling outfits.
