Attendance: Mark Paulson, Sam Chamberlain, Brian Cook, Jim Earnshaw, Reymarx Gereda, Terry Osborn, Chris Carlisle, Marian Schwartz, Abe Schwartz
This month’s meeting welcomed three newcomers to our club; Terry Osborn, Abe Schwarts and his daughter Marian. Abe is 97 years young and has recently moved from New York where he has been an active member of his local club for over 50 years. Abe had some wonderful stories to tell the club members. Terry relocated from Arizona and was looking to become active in a local club.
It was the last club meeting for long time club member Mark Paulson. Mark is moving out of the state and I am sure that whatever local club he joins will be excited to have such a great new member. The club will really miss Mark. President Brian Cook presented Mark with the President’s award for club service.
Jim Earnshaw entertained the club with quite a few coin tricks as well as a version of David Regal’s Red Streamlined Corvette based on a Star Trek theme and red shirts being beamed up to the Enterprise.
Club member Chris Carlisle presented a real “gift” of magic to the club with a nice rendition of The Gift. Chris used a little outside of the box thinking for a unique presentation.
Mark Paulson gave a final mentalism demonstration to the club showing he correctly predicted where a spectator placed a pin in a map for his traveling destination.
Reymarx Gereda presented his card computer routine which turns a normal deck of cards into a computer that can be programmed to find the aces. I always enjoy this routine.
More magic was shared with members and a fun time was had by all.
