2nd WV Jam - main information page
Footbag.org - listing.

If anyone remembers from last year, the WV Jam was damn fun ! So this year we're hosting for our 2nd year now, in our hometown, Parkersburg, West Virginia on August 20(Sat.) & August 21(Sun.)

All information is given on the webpages listed above. Here is the quick run down : ya gotta come if you love shred. Ok, ok , the real run down : There are no competition events, just shred, that's just how we like it. Handstitched 32's and other footbag products will be given out to a couple people that show their potential, their skills, and their dedication to footbag. Also, Freedom Footbags will be selling their products here, and we will have some Jam shirts to sell.

1st Day : Shred, shred, shred at a very nice indoor space. Then a big cookout player's party at my place. There is no entry fee for shredding, but an entry fee for the party.

*Night* Wingate Inn is our host hotel. They gave us a discount off of their regular group rates. The whole hotel is currently being built so it should be a very nice place for everyone to stay.

2nd Day : Shred at the tennis courts. If weather is poor, I still have the indoor space set as a backup.

So if you've read this far, take some time off to kick, you deserve it. Once you know you're good to go, fill out the registration form and you're set.

All information such as location, schedule, hotel, party, registered players, etc., can be found at the links at the top of this post. Questions ? Comments ? It's a forum, post it !

I DEFINITELY want to come. If I can get a ride I will be there for sure. Only thing is that that's the first weekend I'll be in college for this year, so I'm not sure exactly. I will check with Chris and we'll try to decide on whether or not to go in the next few days/weeks. I know I've been hounding you guys, so you know I definitely want to make it. Last year was fun. This year will be even bigger and better with more people! Should be sweet.

Registrants

The list is small, but it's a quality list thus far. A man named Mr. Jim Penske has filled out his registeration for the 2nd WV Jam, and I think you should too

I think he's coming because I just bought a trampoline, j/k, j/k.

If someone can find a reliable car. How much did gas cost when you came here, John? Justo to know what's what...just in case.

HooD · Post by **HooD** » 25 Jul 2005 14:29

Well, suppose you drive the total estimated time of 8 hours going the speed limit for 493 miles from Chicago to Parkersburg. And suppose you are driving a car that gets about 28 miles per gallon with gas costing you about $2.20 per gallon. That estimation comes out to $38.74 for one way.

As long as you don't get lost like I did, it should come out to about that much. Get a car full of CiC , and bam, it's only like $5-10 for the way up !
Oh yeah, I thank this site for doing the math for me...

I'm excited to come shred! I never really go to the east coast. It will be fun to shred with all you guys. I've been practicing hard. It's cool that there's no competition. See you all soon.

Jim

Went to take care of the shirts. Sorry if you love black, but after a good bit of thinking I went with a different style shirt. It's really hot, so I'm going with white, some of the shades of red woudn't have been very visible with black so here is what they should look like !!

HooD · Post by **HooD** » 11 Aug 2005 14:42

Just reminisced on last years event. I really hope that everyone that came last year can come this year. I'm pretty sure that Ryan won't be making it, but that'd make one sweet surpise !! Caleb, you need to gather up all the Pittsburg kickers and stuff them in your car. And Bob, you need to get your lavers and practice... ONE WEEK FOOL !!

Tripp · Post by **Tripp** » 12 Aug 2005 17:53

So this isn't going to be at the same place as last year? What the fart. Megan and I need to stay somewhere cool. Help.

Nah, next year we might have it at WVU again cause Brad should be going to college there. First day is gonna be at a physical therapy clinic. Second day will be at the courts, just check the site and it has pics and info. For where you stay, just call up the hotel and make reservations, it's a nice place. If you don't want to do that, you can crash at our place, but I figure it's gonna be crazy messy after the party and littered with drunkards.
