It's my sincere pleasure to tell you a little about
our clown friend Bonzo.
For myself personally she made me feel welcome and comfortable from day one. Bonzo took our whole class under her wing, she would always go the extra mile to help her "Joey's" get their clown on. She even made time for Flowerbelle and I to come up to her home and help us find our face. Flowerbelle found hers that sunny day in
Shady Hills - I, am still looking.
Bonzo says not to worry, that I will find it eventually.
 And I trust her that I will.

Work? ... Bonnie after much hard work has found her Bliss.
She is working as a school nurse at 7 Springs Elementary school in New Port Richey. She was telling me all about how she is going to decorate her office in "ALL CLOWNS" (Can figure out how she got that idea) She's running her buttock off - running, running, running chasing
those kiddos all over. I'm very happy for her she deserved a break.

Hobbies? ... Clowning of course!

Favorite memory of a clown? ... I grew up with Red Skeleton 
I loved the way he could laugh at himself.

Bonnie says: I always liked clowning around, after going through
 a pretty ruff time in my life I had lost my smile.
So I set out to find my smile... I saw an ad in the paper for a clown class

I thought if I were going to "find my smile" this might be a good place to start. I went to the clown class at the Clown Towner's, unfortunately there wasn't enough people for a real class.
They said they would teach me.

From there I started going to classes and conventions and every educational opportunity that came along.

Guess what? I did find my smile!

What do I like best about clowning? ...  I love to see the smiles and reaction to me. One of the best things about clowning is having so many wonderful clown buddies. I feel like I'm part of a great big loving family.
