An official Holiday in
The goal of Show Me a Smile Day is to bring joy and a smile to those who are in pain, or who feel neglected and forgotten.
The Plan:
- 200+ professional clowns and clown trainees attending the Show Me Clowns for Jesus National Conference will lead out on visits to every accessible resident of nursing homes, children’s homes, and shelters, and as many patients as possible in the two major hospitals in the greater Springfield metro area on the afternoon of February 19, 2011.
- Special stickers will be provided together with other treats and fun during each visit.
- Neighbors are encouraged to visit neighbors who can’t get out easily during the winter to bring a smile and a helping hand.
- Families are encouraged to visit friends and shut-in family members.
- To encourage a spirit of love and community within
