A Guthrie Center daycare facility is helping to bring the circus to town tomorrow to raise funds for their security improvements.
Culpepper & Merriweather Circus will be having shows at the Guthrie County Fairgrounds in Guthrie Center at 5 and 7:30 p.m. Those wanting a behind-the-scenes look at the circus can come to the fairgrounds to see the raising of the Big Top from 9:30-10 a.m. and then have a free tour of the circus grounds. Tickets for the shows are $12 for adults, $7 for those 65 and older and those 2-12 years old, and those under 2 are free. Tickets can be purchased in advance at Guthrie County State Bank and Hometown Foods in Guthrie Center and Panora, and at Adair City Hall. Proceeds will go towards the final expenses for new doors, security cameras, and a keyless entry system at the Kid Zone Early Learning Center locations in Guthrie Center and Adair.
