2016 Calendar of Events

It took a bit of work, but I have updated the calendar with events for 2016.

From time to time, I get emails from various groups that are hosting a convention asking if I would post it on my website. For the most part, if the event is related to clowns or entertaining at events and open to the general public, I will post it when I get the chance. When sending something to be posted, please send all of the important details so I don’t need to search for them myself. I try to post the following information:
