Berkeley Juggling Festival Moves!

September 15, 2009

I just heard that the Berkeley Juggling Festival has moved this year. They will be at

Berkeley High School
1980 Allston Way
Berkeley, CA

It’s a short walk from downtown Berkeley Bart. I don’t know that area well, but parking around there can be a problem, so bart if you can.

The variety show will still be at the old location. Check the festival website, just in case details change, or I’ve read something wrong!

See you there!

Santa Cruz Juggling Festival

August 12, 2009

I was at the 2009 Santa Cruz juggling festival recently, and I had a blast. Only downside was the heat. Bring a hat, bring sunscreen, and bring water. (I’m fond of throwing water bottles in the freezer, and bringing them. After a couple hours, they half melt, and are still wonderfully cold).

There were a range of classes; there was club juggling, contact juggling, hoops and whip cracking. I’ll definitely go next year. I wish they would find a spot with a little more shade, though.

Lots of pics at the link above.

SphereCamp is coming

April 21, 2009

I see that TryOutToys has updated the information for this year’s Sphere Camps. I really hope to get to go to at least one of them.

I haven’t been yet, has anyone else?
