Hello Fellow Magi of the Ann Arbor Magic Club and Friends,
I would first like to say congratulations and thank you to all of our performers in last month's Close Up Showcase competition. It was a great turnout of members and guests to support the performers of all skill levels and experience. They should all be proud of themselves. And a congratulations to Mike Thorton who won the event as voted by the audience.
On a personal note now I would like to ask our club members to hold me accountable when it comes to being a magician. I always have a few magic effects with me when I'm out and can perform them at anytime. But at a magic meeting I arrive with a bag of tricks but rarely perform them. At a recent meeting when I asked a member what they were working on they reciprocated the question and asked me the same thing. It made me think and I recounted an effect in progress. Now I'm motivated to complete the work and present it at a meeting. That is what I need to do.
How about you? At a magic meeting of a magic club we need to see more magic, talk more magic, share more magic and teach more magic.
See you all soon.
Dan Jones, President of Ann Arbor Magic Club.
