The party was stupendous! We all had a terrific time, and I've gotten numerous calls and letters of thank you—all mentioning the circus as the highlight of the day. Any circus would have been fun, but your staff was the best—supportive and patient and helpful, with ability to teach everybody from six-year-olds to 76-year-olds! Thank you for putting together such a special event.

I just wanted to thank you again for your help with making this party so memorable. All of the performers were just a wonderful addition to the party, and I've heard from so many people how they enjoyed the juggling and dancing and interacting with the mime. We've also gotten many comments suggesting that the Double Helix Bash become a yearly event, so if this happens (which I hope it does) you will be certainly be hearing from me next year!

What I most appreciate is that after describing to you my audience, my location, and my budget, you were able to call back wtih a number of interesting and original ideas, entertaining to the children and parents alike.
