This year, the annual North End Elephant Brunch is where some of the biggest stars of the circus, the Asian elephants, salute some of the biggest heroes – the City of Boston’s first responders. Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey’s all new show celebrates the ‘spirit of the Dragon’ which exemplifies HEART, COURAGE, STRENGTH and WISDOM. Over the past few months, the City of Boston has embodied all of these virtues, especially first responders from Boston Police Department, Boston Fire Department, Boston Emergency Medical Services and all those who serve in the U.S. Armed Forces.
First responders and their families will be honored during the elephant brunch and be invited to help feed the elephants, receive one-of-a-kind pachyderm paintings, and be invited to that evenings performance of Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Presents DRAGONS at TD Garden.
