Calgary 2010 Spinner & Hoop Gatherings

Calgary: every Sunday, outdoor hoop jams!

Starting May 23, 2:00-6:00

Prince's Island Park

Thank you Jen Gray for organizing this!

"Blessedly warm weather shall soon be upon us and its time to reconnect with our friends and fellow "spinners".

You, your friends & family are welcome to join joy-full-forces all the other hoola hoopers, poi swingers, flag twirlers and other manipulative contact arts players on our first sunday gathering at Princes Island Park.

**Where in the park?**
When you go over the bridge closest to Eau Claire Market, walk straight (north-ish)about 20-25 paces and on the left hand side you will find a nice field with a single tree on the left and then a whole bunch along the right. This part of the park is usually full of frisbee folks and sunbathers in the heat of summer.

Bring extra hoops/poi/toys, music players, water, snacks and the kids.

Should you be so inclined, we invite you to also bring with you an INTENTION for this summer and all the revelry and celebration that it will bring into our lives... then we'll all spin it above and below and out into the world to bring even more magic and wonder! And Fun!

Alas, Fire Spinning brothers and sisters- Riley Park is no longer safe for us to partake of our bright invocations. I know many of us will want to celebrate with fire and glow play: please feel welcome to use the wall to co-ordinate a way to continue our radiant delights!

**It is our intention to keep getting together EVERY SUNDAY all throughout the summer (weather permitting) at the Park at 2pm. There will also be super.cool events hosted by Sunday4Play where we may simply move our group to join up with them and of course not everyone will be able to attend every sunday due to work/festivals/vacations/ufo.abductions and the like... but as last year proved - there is always someone to play with around.**"

Yes, thank you Jen! These afternoons are so much fun! It is open to all levels of experience, from very advanced to no experience at all...it is a great way to learn and connect with other wonderful people!

As for fire spinning, I know that during the fall there has been a group meeting at Edworthy Park in Calgary. Just be aware that if the City doesn't approve of this activity, they may feel inclined to hand out fines. Boo! Perhaps a group of us could arrange to share the cost on an open fire permit sometime? Otherwise, those of you itching to spin and burn are most welcome to come out to my backyard!
