Magic, music and men on stilts were among the highlights of the recent Cape May Carnival. Kids of all ages thrilled to clowns, cotton candy, games galore and train rides. Live music kept the good times going with performances from The Copious Notes, The Hitchhikers and The Wilmington Church of God youth group. Walking tall among the fun were (shown) stilt walkers from The Cincinnati Circus Company; they juggled a mean pin, tossing colorful bowling pins between them and often overhead.
Cape May residents turned out for some fun, too. They volunteered at some tables, but also tried their hand at tossing mini-footballs, a life-sized Operation board-game (shown, challenging a couple of non-residents) and a few rounds of bingo to win some great prizes donated by Functional Pathways, Kava Haus, Senior Independence, Wilmington College and Cape May.
