Each year, I attend the Midwest Roundup clown convention (except for 2006; I didn't get to go that year) to learn more about clowning, obtain more props, music for kids, etc.  Four days of classes, competition, shopping and FUN.

This year, I came in 3rd (out of 10) for white face makeup competition, where the judges critique EVERYTHING.  It's a tough competition, but I love it and take the comments to heart and change what needs to be changed. 

Here are some pictures from this year's convention.
