[Toledo]The Assembly of Awesome (lol)[August 31-September 2]

Post by Donovon » 31 Jan 2012 07:45

Hosting an event has been on my to do list for quite some time.
I'm sort of tagging this event onto something larger, so at least check it out...
FacebookPage
The Assembly of Awesome(it grows on you, lol)
When: Friday, August 31st (5:00PM) - Sunday, September 2nd (7:00PM)
Where: 1620 Marketplace Drive
The Maumee Sportsmall
Maumee, Ohio 43537
(*Pretty much Toledo, OH)
What: 50 Straight Hours of Open Gym
The main event is considered a juggling event, but this is not your standard juggling convention, this is a collaboration event, one that will give us all a chance to meet people with talents across the board and learn new things. Footbag should be represented.
This convention is open to EVERYONE, however we will be specifically extending an invitation to people with interests that fall into any of the below listed skills.

Acrobalance
Aerial Silks
Ball Spinning
Balloon Art
Baton Twirling
Buugeng
Cigar Boxes
Circus Arts
Contact Juggling
Contact Staff
Devil Sticks
Diabolo
Dice Stacking
Digitz
Fire Preforming
Flower Sticks
Foot Bag
Foot Juggling
Hat Manipulation
Hula Hoop
Juggling
Jump Rope
Kendama
Lasso
Magic
Mime
Passing
Plate Spinning
Pogo-Stick
Poi
Rope Dart
Rubik’s Cubes
Side Show
Slackline
Staff Spinning
Unicycle
Ventriloquism
Whips
Yoyos

Fee: There will be an entry fee to the overall event :( No more than $20 but likely less than $15.

Show: We are also looking into starting a more formal "show" within walking distance, if thats something you're interested. Primarily location pending.

Lodging:
You can crash in the gym if money is tight
We are still working on hotel blocking, will update when I have that info.

Footbag tournament/events- gonna need some help here
We are going to have our own events and such

Im looking at this point to get a feel for everyone's thoughts.
I know its all the way in september...
So... discuss?

Balloon art, hat manipulation, and mime? I can finally retire from footbag.

But seriously, count me in. I'm looking forward to it.

Really consider coming. this is a collaborative event for anyone interested in things aside from footbag and in sharing footbag with others potentially interested.
