But 9 organizers of the Waterâ€" loo Buskers Carnival 4 want to ensure that this C community‘s annual event is one residents car be proud of. As a result, they‘ve recruited street performers â€" with a variâ€" ety of unique talents â€" k from across North Amerâ€" ica to entertain crowds at 4 this year‘s carnival. C One such unique perâ€" former is Masaji Teraâ€" sawa, who performs the ancient Oriental art form [ of "amesaiku", or, to us laypeople, "toffee shapâ€" ing". Originally from Japan, Terasawa now lives in Florida, where he works full time performâ€" ing his art at Disney‘s Epcot Centre.

Last year we figure we had about 40,000 people attend over the four days." Johnstonâ€"Aldworth says. "This year we‘re expecting at least similar numbers to last year‘s â€" we‘d like to see even more." Of the thousands of people who visit the Waterloo Busker Carnival, most are from Waterloo Region and surrounding area. But more and more people are travelâ€" ling farther distances to enjoy the four day event.
