Fyi. Looks as though all my pics from my old reviews are gone. It HAS been six years since I did them. I'll work on replacing them when I get some time. I will also add a couple new reviews. I have actually bought a couple new yo-yo's since 2008 :-)

Maybe it will happen?!

I started this blog MANY years ago hoping to start up a yo-yo club in Redding. Unfortunately I received little to no interest. But..... Recently I have had contact from a few interested souls. Seems they vary in age from early teen to myself (a young 47!) although now with a 3 yr. old boy (future yo-yo er) I have had little time to practice or learn anything new. I do have a personal yo-yo on display at the yo-yo museum in Chico.  I may not be an Augy Fash but in Redding terms I have quite advanced skills, along with a dwindling but still sweet yo-yo collection. So....I propose we schedule the first ever meeting of the redding yo-yo club. I can reserve a meeting room at a local pizza joint on a night and time designated by our fledgling members. We can discuss how to procure additional members, a logo for the club, possibility of an annual Redding yo-yo comp!? I'm thinking the "sundial bridge yo-yo contest and art festival" hmm hmm could happen with a little work. Multiple stages along the bridge with yo-yo ers doing 1A, 2A, 3A, 4A, 5A, kendama etc etc with different bands of varying genre, food vendors the WORKS! I think it has potential. Contact me via this blog with any input and a preferred place to hold the first meeting. As with the yo-yo club in Chico, if you expose new people (kids of all ages) to the art of yo-yoing interest and participation will grow.
