The C & M Circus came to Lexington on Wednesday night.

Remington’s parents, Amber and Shane Hedrick, told Richland Source in August 2017 that Remington has trouble seeing things at a distance, has little to no depth perception and has significant color deficiencies. But everything changed when Remington received a pair of eSight glasses in October, which was made possible through a fundraising effort led by The Visual Bucket List Foundation. The glasses allow her to zoom in on things she otherwise couldn’t see. So, when the Culpepper & Merriweather Circus brought their traveling show to Lexington Wednesday, May 9, Remington and her family were in the crowd. Now in its 33rd edition, the C & M Circus is internationally known. Each of two 90-minute shows included performances like the Wheel of Destiny & Tight Rope by The Perez Family, Miss Simone on the trapeze, The Arlise Troupe on their unicycles, Miss Paulina’s proud “Big & Little” prancing ponies, Natalie’s American Eskimo Escapades and Miss Georgia displaying flexibility to the extreme.
