Bernafon Netherlands, part of the Swiss manufacturer of hearing aids, exists five years. The company of CEO Frans Story sponsors the SNDC and supports deaf top-athletes as much as possible. Circus Herman Renz was hired to celebrate this main event. Every year Bernafon organize the Family-event, a party for affiliates with their families. In 2007 there was also a Bernafon Benefit Rally across the Betuwe, the revenues were donated to the SNDC. Every guest was welcomed personally by Frans and his staff.
"Congratulations with your drivers license"
After I had congratulated him with the five year existence he said to me: "I have to congratulate you with your driver license, excellent !" After some refreshments and something to eat it ws time for the special show. By magic Frans Story appeared in the arena to hold his speech and to wish us much fun with the show. 
The appearance of Frans Story
What followed was a show full of acts: magicans, acrobatics, wild animals and clowns. Acrobatics is my favourit, it's also a physical "sport" and it's amazing what those people do ! 
Balancing on the edge, very good !
These artists practice a lot and must perform every day more then once. 
Yeah, they also thought about me. (The water that is...)
The magican was to quick to foloow with his tricks, his ladies disappeared into thin air like nothing. I still don't know how hed did it ! 
"Hans Klok" was also present.
After the break the show continued with the lions and tigers, very exciting for the children to see the wild animals from this close. 
Just chatting...
The little ones weren't forgotten: The clowns did funny stuff between the acts, the arena in the meantime did get transformed for the next act. 
Much fun with this clown !
That arena was almost too small for the elephant, wow what a big animal. 
Jumbo was great...
The more than two hours of show rushed by before you know it. 
I can't do this !
After the last act Frans Story thanked everybody for coming and invited us for something to drink before we went homel. If Bernafon exists 10 year, what for a party it must be...... Frans and Bernafon, thank you for a wonderful afternoon !
