Hill Visits

Parents of children affected by cancer and other concerned citizens met with their Senators and Representatives Tuesday, June 22nd, to demand full funding of the Caroline Pryce-Walker Conquer Childhood Cancer Act.

Over 225 visits took place, giving increased political support and hope to the children's cancer community.

The Greatest Show on Earth

Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey kicked off the partnership with CureSearch at Reach the Day 2010 and the CureSearch Walk in Washington, DC.

Magically transforming a hotel conference room into the “Big Top”, the clowns entertained the children for hours. They learned to juggle, walk across a low wire and were themselves transformed into clowns with face painting by a clown.

Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey performers joined The CureSearch Walk Welcome Reception and led the way on the streets of Capitol Hill. After The Walk, attendees watched in amazement as a clown on stilts danced the night away at the reception by the pool. How did she do that?

Thanks to The Greatest Show on Earth for the giggles and smiles.
