| Our latest: a group, not quite a murder of crow-beings. Debuting in 2011. |

Some scenes from Oregon Country Fair, 2010
 |
| Risk of Change players in the Meditation Loft above our Public Closet. We bring an extensive array of costumes and accessories so Fair Family and Fairgoers can join our parades. We love the way this strengthens the playful spirit of the fair, for our guest artists and for us. |
 |
| New in 2010: High Priestesses. In this inspiring evening ritual, fairgoers are honored and blessed by a dozen robed sages with lighted headdresses. |
 |
| TWINS! Several charming new additions in 2010. These classically-inspired clowns had a sweet musical surprise inside those purple boxes... |
Energy Park's Twin sisters

| Looking Sassy in those cowgirl hats |
Twins on Parade! Behind the Circus Band. Risk of Change adds extra color and sizzle to every Circus Parade.
Sometimes we bring a quieter, more reflective beauty to the Fair: Krishnas debuted in 2008 and have become a crowd favorite. Our strong emotive presence brings joy and peace, communicated silently through loving, smiling eye contact.

| A circle before we begin our silent, intense tour of the paths. This helps us really see each other and gather loving energy to spread through the fair. Risk of Change entertains and amazes fairgoers with several ensemble, small group and solo performances every day. Our iconic giant puppet, Odo, has been joined in recent years by new giants -- one each year for the past few years. Now we have five Giants! All were featured in the 2010 Midnight Parade, and all danced on the Main Stage to open the Midnight Show. Waiting for the Torchlight Parade near the Top of the Eight   Cruising home Sunday morning after a night behind Main Stage...  Color isn't all we do. A favorite parade theme for many Energy Park and other Fair Family is BLACK and WHITE.    Even our friend Jill's wolf giant dressed in Black and White! The paparazzi loved it.. Some indelible characters:  Buzz  Troll Baby (at the OCF Science Fair)  Sweep Witch - it's always good to have a broom handy  Odo at his 21st Birthday Party, 2009  Odo loves surprise parties!  Some of the 300 hand made souvenir rattles we handed out during our Odo Fiesta! parade. We heard them shaking all day!  Sissy Longhorn with a basket full of gift Odo rattles Waving Fair Well in Orange and Green (see you next year...)   Looking forward to our next dance on the Eight!
