The JokErS

Of  ARABA

"WE'RE PROUD TO BE SHRINERS"

 Why We Clown

We clown to raise funds that go to help in the support of our 22 Hospitals for Children all over the USA. Shrine hospitals never charge any Parent or guardian for the care and attention given to any child.....ever.

Gigs

Gigs are appearances that we make to raise the funds necessary to maintain our hospitals and Burns Centers. The funds raised are those given by donation from the sponsor, or business owner, out of the goodness of their hearts.

Parades

We appear at parades to create laughter, public awareness, and to have fun putting smiles on the faces of young and old alike.

  How You Can Be A Joker Clown 

All members of the Jokers Clown Unit must be

Shriners in good standing.

You can talk to any Shriner and he will be more than happy to give you all the information or visit the web site listed below.

A Clown's Blessing

May your nose be red and shiny,

And your smile always bright.

May your cheeks be nice & rosy,

Your eyes sparkle in the light,

May your shoes be always too big,

Your costume be perma-pressed,

Your heart overflow with laughter,

Every time your clown is dressed.

May face paint be at the ready,

And your balloons be "easy-blow."

May children run to greet you,

Wherever you may go.

         

A   CLOWN  IS  A POET IN

The Clown Prayer

Help me to create more laughter than tears, dispense more happiness than gloom, spread more cheer than despair. Never let me grow so big that I will fail to see the wonder in the eyes of a child or the twinkle in the eyes of the aged.

Never let me forget that I am a clown, that my work is to cheer people up, make them happy, and make them laugh, and make them forget momentarily all the  unpleasant things in  their lives.

Never let me jeopardize the integrity of clowndom by improper conduct

Help to always make others proud of my actions as a clown.

Never let me acquire financial success to the point where I will  discontinue calling upon my creator in the hour of plenty.

So Mote it be
