Click And Clown Company

Dilly the Clown, Mrs. Click & Andrea (the face painter) were invited to the Maple Ridge Park to help Royal LePage Brookside celebrate summer with their staff.   What a grand time… we sang songs, played games, went for ride in the Click & Clown Company wagon, did a little magic, made a WHOLE bunch of balloons and the big highlight of the show was Dilly’s famous merry-go-round.   Playing “William Tell” with the balloon apple, the balloon bow and arrows was a blast!

While we were there to entertain the Royal LePage staff and their families, they were so gracious to share us with others in the park.  Andrea had a ball as she decorated lots of happy faces… and as usual Mrs. Click captured the whole event with her Nikon.

We were amazed at how much everyone from the party participated in the show.  The kids were so very well behaved and polite.  This great big happy family was a true pleasure to entertain.   A big THANK YOU to Royal LePage Brookside!

So step right up folks… let us tell you one and all… about the greatest little Night Market in these here parts…

The Click & Clown Company was invited to join the Night Market for a very worthwhile fundraiser… The Delta Hospice Society.

We arrived just before 4 p.m. and began taking photos and entertaining children of all ages… The crowd started small, but didn’t take long to grow and grow… Dilly didn’t stop making balloons from the start of the show until he left at 9 p.m. collecting a sizeable amount of change while charging 50 cents a balloon… all proceeds went to the Delta Hospice Society… Mrs. Click captured all of the excitement while Dilly danced, sang songs, performed some magic, played with “MOOKA” the Cow and made the kids of all ages enjoy smiles, laughter and fun throughout the evening.

We would like to thank all of the organizers, volunteers, vendors and everyone who helped to make this event such a success… We hope to get invited back next year… or perhaps another show in Ladner.

There were so many products to look at and buy… there were so many things to do… there was so much good food to eat and great entertainment to enjoy!

Dilly and Mrs. Click had a ball as the huge turnout of young and old came to share in the fun at our community’s first Farmer’s Market.  Dilly made special Farmer’s Market hats for the kids and put smiles on everyone’s faces as he put on his show for all who stopped to see the act.

The kids zone was wonderful, the music was truly country and the volunteers were just as helpful as could possibly be.

Thank you Paul & Eileen for organizing such a successful community event.  Don’t forget everyone… The Osprey Village Farmer’s Market is every Sunday from now to September 19th… 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.  Make sure to come out and get your fresh produce, fresh baked goods, flowers, homemade goodies & crafts. Hope to see you there!

The rhythm was hopping… the crowd was alive… the colours were bright… the vendors were awesome… the food smelled great… there were a million things to do… old friends and new… and the crowd around Dilly the Clown grew and grew and grew!

Maple Ridge hosted a wonderful party and Mrs. Click took a ton of photos to remember this fabulous event.  Dilly entertained everyone with his smiles, laughter and fun… throw in a couple of hundred balloons, dancing, singing, and of course performing the famous DAYTIME FIREWORKS (assisted by Dilly’s “Clown in Training”).  The Dilly mobile display unit was a big hit, better than an elephant in the centre ring!!!

Where did all these folks come from:  All over the place and they all had FUN… the sun was out and so was the community spirit… We all had a ball and look ahead to next year’s event again!

June 6th of this year found us bringing smiles, laughter and fun to the thousands of participants at the annual fundraising event held in Vancouver at the Children’s Hospital.  Mrs. Click took the photos while Dilly the Clown entertained kids both young and old.  The show just didn’t stop… and with so many great entertainers and the audience, the place was jumping.

We joined the younger set in the 1km walk and boy did we have fun… with his mobile display unit, Dilly made his way through the walk with lots of new friends.  Sing silly songs, dancing up a storm and making balloon hats… the walk was just like a circus parade… with no elephants.

After the walk we stayed to entertain until the very end.  It made us feel good to know that we helped the foundation raise a huge amount of money for this worthwhile cause… we are honoured to have been invited to entertain and photograph this wonderful event… we are looking forward to next year.

The Click & Clown Company was excited to be a part of this annual event and stepped right up to the occasion.  With Dilly’s new “Mobile Display Unit” and his two CITs (Young Clowns in Training), we set out to WOW the crowd and win first place in the parade.  Our float (as small as it is) was a big hit with all of the audience along the way and we had a ball meeting and waving to all of the spectators.

Our CITs had rehearsed their routine over and over, so when we got to the reviewing stand they put on a show stopping, hilarious performance for the judges.  The judges were extremely pleased and told us so by awarding us first place in our category for the parade.

After the parade we went into Harris Road Park to share in the festivities.  We located ourselves near the children’s playground and entertained kids with smiles, laughter and fun for most of the afternoon.  We sure made a lot of animal balloons.

The weather was great, the crowd was great and we had a great time… We’ll see you all again next year as we celebrate another Pitt Meadows Day!

On Sunday, May 30th, the Port Coquitlam Costco Store held a fabulous event to raise funds for the Children’s Miracle Network.  Dilly and Mrs. Click were delighted to be part of such a successful fundraiser.   Our audience was plentiful and tons of fun to entertain.  Mrs. Click enjoyed capturing the many special moments of the day.  Dilly the Clown twisted balloons and added smiles, laughter & fun to everyone who passed or stopped by.   Thank you Costco for giving us the opportunity to participate in such a successful event.  The staff was lots of fun to be around and were extremely helpful.  We would definitely do this show again!

What an awesome fundraiser!  Despite the rainy, windy and cold weather for a May 2nd, it was great to see so many adults, young people and kids attend and support this wonderful event.  We met new friends and had a really good time entertaining and taking photos.  Dilly was truly in his element making balloons, dancing, singing songs and just having a grand time.  We were honoured to share sponsorship of this event with a number of companies and organizations.   We look forward to next year’s walk and hope to participate in this fundraiser again!  Thank you Eileen for letting us be a part of the FV Walk for Kids Help Phone.
