Dear Members:
The Meeting for this month will be Member’s Choice.  The Theme for the night will be Vintage Magic.  The night will consist of everyone sharing their old magic to demonstrate to the group.  This will include old props, tricks, effects etc.  We would like everyone attending to get involved.  If you have some old vintage magic but do not know how to perform the trick, bring it along and share with the group also.  You may have old cards, old magazines with old tricks.  We can make this a very fun and entertaining evening with all the vintage magic you can bring and share to the group.
Please note the meetings begin at 7pm.
Thank you and see you then.

Another meeting another great lecture.

On October 9, 2018, we will be gathering to see the lecture of Peter Mennie.

 

“Confessions of an OCD Magician – Sending the Elevator Back Down” by Peter Mennie.

This lecture will hopefully guide you to take your performing BUSINESS to the next floor – if and when you decide to get into the elevator. No tricks, sleights, or routines. Only solid advice.

Garret Thomas Lecture at Parkdale Magic Club

Hi gang,

The Parkdale Magic Club is having Garret Thomas come to lecture on September 20th at 7:00 pm. The door fee for non-members is $10.00. The club meets at St. Paul United Church which is located at 42 Tragina North in Hamilton.
Here is a short blurb about Garret;
If you care about magic as an art, you must see Garrett Thomas; Motivational Speaker for Magicians. Why do you do what you do? Do you want to take it to the next level? Just spend some time with Garrett, and you will soon learn how to further your magic in simplicity, clarity, and most importantly, how to evoke astonishment.
 
You will learn some of the effects that have made Garrett a favorite amongst top magicians. Also, learn many touches to be applied to your own magic.
 
A Real-World Magician and consultant to David Blaine, Garrett has performed in the world famous Forks Hotel and Bar, and now performs in restaurants and nightclubs all over Western New York. A member of the elite FFFF magic society, Garrett Thomas has performed and lectured at clubs and conventions all over the United States, and the UK, and is now coming to your area.
 
Garrett brings back magic in its purest form. His effects are simple, clean, well-thought-out pieces of magical art. Coins appear, melt away, and jump from one hand to the other in ways that defy description. One of his most popular effects, The Ring Thing, is a fast demonstration of finger ring manipulation. Garrett is well known for his sleight of hand, he teaches the tools that can be applied to many of your favorite routines, and he can restore new life to some of the moves and gimmicks you already use, or have in your magic drawer at home.
 

Quote:

“As TV Magicians we try to capture the real magic that performers like Garrett Thomas do everyday.” “He’s my favorite close-up magician love to watch him work.”
 
David Blaine 
See you at the Ring 49 meeting September 11th at Binkly United Church, our usual meeting place. Meet and greet is 6:30 – 7::00 pm. The meeting will be 7:00 – 10:00 pm.

Good day everyone.
Well the advertisements for the CNE have start and you know what that means. It is time for our monthly Ring 49 Magic Club Meetings!
 I have attached two documents. The Word document will let you see what we have planned for the 2018 – 2019 season. You will also see a ballot attached to this message. You will use this to help us to fill in some themes for three months over the year. You do not need to bring this to the meeting in September. I will make sure that there are enough forms for everyone at our first meeting.  What is important is that you come in September if you want to vote as we will not be taking any ballots after the initial meeting. I have attached it here so you will see the list and can think about it before our gathering on the 11th.
I hope to see you on the 11th at Binkly United Church at 6:30 for the beginning of what promises to be a fun filled year of magic for all of us. If you have any questions or need anything do not hesitate to shoot me an email or give me a call.
Regards.
Scott The Magical Guy
