Circus Skills



Lanson YFC welcomed Richard Gribble to lead this week’s club meeting. He briefly spoke about how he became interested in ‘Circus Skills’ before demonstrating how to use an eclectic range of circus equipment. His enthusiasm quickly inspired members to practise their skills which included spinning plates, juggling balls, walking on stilts and performing tricks with diablos.

The evening brought back happy memories to the club, as four years ago a cabaret performance ‘Out of The Box’ (which involved many of these skills) won the National YFC entertainment final.

Many thanks to Richard for a very enjoyable evening.

About Launceston YFC

Launceston Young Farmers Club was established in 1947 and is run by members for members.

We have weekly meetings on Thursdays which range from talks on homeopathy or photography to activities such as circus skills or beach barbeques and visits to farms, tourist attractions and businesses.

We take part in many competitions and events across the county and country with great sucess, and do the odd bit of socialising as well...

The club is a charitable organisation itself, but we also engage in fundraising events for other charities, raising over £2000 last year.

Members range in age from 16 to 26 and anyone is welcome to join.
