MONROE -- If you're looking for some fun this weekend, the Barak Shrine Circus is well-underway in Monroe.
Folks came out Saturday morning to the Monroe Civic Center for the circus' first performance of the day, where KTVE-KARD sponsored the Mystery Seat Prize.
Circus fun includes lions, elephants, acrobats and of course the silly clowns!
One circus fan, Wanda Barker, has already taken her grandkids twice!
"It's not just for the kids, the adults like it, too," she said. They wanted to come see the animals and ride an elephant, they've never seen a camel before."
The money raised in this annual event goes to the Shrine Center -- it's their biggest fundraiser of the year.
There's still shows coming up Sunday at 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. For more info, click here or call (318) 329-2225.
