It’s hard to believe the circus has already come and gone. We feel so privileged to have such a wonderful event like the Kelly Miller Circus to come to our town. Their visit wouldn’t have been possible though if it weren’t for our wonderful sponsors! It is with bounds of gratefulness that we want to recognize and thank Hartville Hardware, Hartville MarketPlace, Hartville Kitchen, Hartville Collectibles, Clearwater Park, and VitaNet for their sponsorship of the 2014 Kelly Miller Circus. Additional thanks goes to Hartville Hardware, Best Bib and Tucker, and Clearwater Park for opening their businesses for ticket sales.
A particularly exciting part of this year’s circus was the Ultimate Circus Prize Pack give-away. The prize pack included four ringside tickets, animal ride tickets, circus programs, and concession passes. The winner also had the opportunity to be the guest ring master and guest elephant rider, in addition to receiving various gifts from our sponsors. This year’s Ultimate Circus Prize Pack was made possible by McNamara, Demczyk, Co., LPA and the winners were a local Hartville family. Thanks to McNamara, Demczyk, the family enjoyed primetime seating at this world-class circus complete with popcorn, beverages, and much more! (Bob McNamara and prize pack winner pictured below)
The positive economic impact of the Kelly Miller Circus coming to Hartville is worthy of mention. Ticket sales alone provide funding for future community programs and economic development as well as bringing in tourists to town from all over the state. What’s more is the contribution of the Kelly Miller Circus crew. The morning of the circus they couldn’t wait to visit their favorite local spots, and they collectively spent an approximated $6,000 in Hartville and Uniontown. Between the thousands of people who enjoyed a spectacular show and the great economic impact to our community, the 2014 Kelly Miller Circus was a success!
