News for 2013’s Fun Camp Canada!

Welcome Friends, Clowns, Magicians, Balloon Twisters, Facepainters, Childrens’ Ministry Workers, Family Entertainers, Storytellers and Family to the new blog of Fun Camp Canada!  We’re so excited to be able to blog this year’s information so that you can ‘follow’ the blog and keep up to date with all the latest in Camp Information!

To begin with, many of you have been inquiring about a few basics for Fun Camp this year….  Here are a few of your answers…

Camp is May 23 – 26, 2013(Thursday noon to Sunday noon).  Keep checking the “Schedule” page of this blog for the latest updates to exactly what’s going on at camp this year.

The location is again at the Ambrose University College where we are able to learn together, eat together, camp out together in the dorms, renew old friendships and create new ones.

profileAnd now for this week’s BIG NEWS!!!  We have had confirmation from our headliner and we’re excited to be able to announce to you that for the first time, Fun Camp Canada welcomes DON BURSELL as our feature instructor!!!  Don comes highly recommended from our mutual friend and last year’s Headliner, Randy Christensen who has done a lot of performing and instructing with Don.
 Don Bursell grew up in North Minneapolis, presenting his first show at 12 years old. For the next five years he performed around Minnesota with The Variety II Review. Don attended one year of college, but because of his endless energy he opted to chase his dream of circus life by working with Ringling Brothers & Barnum & Bailey Circus. Sadly, after only 6 months on the road he was forced to leave because of severe allergies and life threatening asthma complications. Soon afterward he moved to California to work as an entertainer for the Disney Corporation. In 1988 he married his beautiful wife, Debbie, and began ministry work as Circus Unique. After 17 years, he now presents family entertainment and evangelism programs as DonB! Ministries, coordinating over 250 events annually around the United States and Canada.

Don is also a 2-time National Unicycle Champion, is regularly brought in as a Convention Entertainer, and because of the quality and uniqueness of his one-man shows, he regularly receives standing ovations and high acclaim for his work.

We will also be having many other great instructors so keep watching this blog for more updates…
