Jenny Bushek ,Plymouth, is the  "Kids Show" Director.  Shockwaves began a kids show about 20 minutes prior to the main show at 7:00 pm  this year, to give the kids more opportunities to be in more acts, and work on their showmanship skills.  Bushek is holding a white board with the "kids show" act order.
Still climbing the Big Pyramid during Shockwaves finale, are, bottom row, left to right, Mike Thibault, Donny McGinty, Charlie Woodson, Shane Randahl, Mike Aretz, and Patrick Fitzgibbons.
