Hey Everyone! Edit: Zach bailed on me and quit footbag, leaving me in charge completely. So
I am throwing a Footbag Jam in PA, April 15-17 (Only including Friday because if anyone wants/needs to show up early or something they can chill and kick with some of us that night, but Saturday is the BIG event day, taking place from 12-3, but we can go early and stay late, and Sunday is just going to be a fun and shred day to show footbag to visitors of the park).
The location will be at Gring's Mill (a popular recreational park within walking distance of my apartment). We were able to be a part of a festival called "Eggstravaganza", which will consist of kids and their parents making Easter eggs and doing other Easter activities. We have a great asphalt spot on a volleyball court that they reserved for us, which is right in public view. The spot is CHOICE. Right next to the shred spot, we will also have some net footbag set up.
For more information on this Easter event, check out:
EGGstravaganza
Edit: REASONS FOR THIS JAM:

There has been an outstanding hatching of new dedicated players who have already gotten pretty good that most of you have never heard of. I thought it would be great for them to experience their first footbag jam in or around their hometown.

There's a cheap hotel right up the road from my apartment, in case you don't wan't/can't get floor space at my apartment (Which there is a lot of).

I'm going to move to PSU Main Campus next year, and thought this would be a cool way to end the school year with a BANG and a happy farewell to this campus that's treated me so well for 3 years.

Demonstrate footbag to A LOT of kids and others (The park and recs lady said 700+!)
Edit:
Definitely Attended!

New Improved T-shirt Design (Rough Version)
This is the front image, hanging from the neck, like a necklace, there will be a Laver footprint as the back image with the Jam name and all that good stuff. (Hopefully I'll have the full finished design by tomorrow night.
Sorry to throw up these new designs, but the old ones wouldn't have worked out. Plus I think these are going to be way cooler.
All shirts from Sizes S-L all in Lime Green and $10 a pop
NEW ANNOUNCEMENTS:

Just to make it clear, Friday night and the Saturday after party will be BYOB, but there will be one or two younger kids at this event staying at my place (I think the youngest is 14), so I prefer it not to get too crazy with alcohol. Not saying you can't have fun, just pretty please be cool about it.
IF YOU DO PLAN ON BRINGING DRINKS, PLEASE BRING BEVERAGES INTO MY APARTMENT IN A BROWN BAG OR HIDDEN SOMEHOW, THANKS IN ADVANCE

I also plan on setting my hookah up in the living room and a 4-square court in my dining room.

Not mandatory, but it would be nice if a few people could bring snacks/drinks for everyone, since I'm supplying the crash space. I'm going to try to get a few cases of donuts for us too.

When you guys arrive, please bring as little as you can into my apartment (sleeping bag, a change of clothes, toiletries... footbags) just to maximize room for everyone. There will definitely be enough room for everyone, I've measured it out about a thousand times (almost serious

I really didn't want to screw anything up and have there be not enough room for everyone, since this is only my first event and i'd like to run a good, fun first event that everyone will remember in a positive way). If you guys and gals could leave duffel bags and other larger whatnots in your cars or friends' cars until you need it, that would be ideal.

If you are arriving Friday night, try not to be at my place before 6:30, because I have an internship preparation class from 4-6 every Friday, and I can't skip it. I will be back at my apartment by around 6. It's annoying, I know, I apologize for this time constraint :\[/i]
