A fun evening of magic and friendship at this month’s meeting. There was quite a bit of performing and some great magic.
John Cameron brought some wine to the meeting. It was quite magical that it matched a chosen card selected by a spectator.
Larry Dimmitt performed some mentalism where he was able to influence and match a selection of ESP cards. Larry also presented a quick impromptu trick where only one selection out of five was a “winner”, it was lucky that the audience member selected the correct item.
Roger Sylwester presented a very nice multi-phase three card monte routine that involved cards magically changing to different values.
Richard Gerlitz showed the group an amazing cryptex device that he made. Richard is quite well known for his magic craftsmanship and the quality of the device was stunning.
Rick Swaney performed a card to box routine with a very nice vanish of a selected card sandwiched between two other cards.
Joy D’avanzo showed the group some work she was doing with rope magic. Joy is becoming quite good with her rope magic.
Ralph Huntzinger wanted to get some input on his ring on string routine. The club brainstormed a bit to offer insight into options on vanishing a ring.
Jim Earnshaw performed his Okito box routine, using a beautiful wooden box and wand made by Brian Cook (MagicCrafter).
Brian Cook was nice enough to present each of the members at the meeting a nice set of playing cards. So everyone was a winner!
