News and Views

In June 2010, Bob Cline, former CHS Secretary/Treasurer, published the first CHS newsletter, News and Views: Bringing Circus Past and Present Together! The goal of the newsletter was to provide a venue for current circus happenings, as well as providing an additional link with the membership between the issues of CHS’s journal, Bandwagon.  Distributed six times a year, it contained a wide range of news articles, pieces on circus history, and CHS convention and membership information.
