Traveling church brings lessons to The Great Frederick Fair
The Church on the Way, led by Frank and JoElla Fritsch, travels with Reithoffer Shows. The Seattle natives and their four children operate a mobile non-denominational school inside the carnival circuit. Students study from 9:45 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily in cubicles, completing up to 40 pages weekly across spelling, Bible, reading and social studies. The program emphasizes discipline, offers education through travel, and aims to dispel the stereotype that carnival families lack values.
