Meetings

PLEASE DON’T FORGET!  Our next RING 22 meeting will be the perfect “MAGICAL” appetizer for THANKSGIVING - and it’s now less than a week away!  We’re hosting an extra-special, star-studded celebration of MAGIC, on TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 2023, 7:15 PM at the SPIRIT OF CHRIST (TRINITY) LUTHERAN CHURCH, 749 W. 14 Mile Rd., Clawson, MI.  Take a look at the wonders we have planned, JUST FOR YOU…!

• We’re featuring an exclusive EXTENDED MINI-LECTURE with one of our club’s superstars of magic, ERIC BEDARD!  He’s performed around the world, and at our meeting he’ll reveal and share some of his best kept secrets as well as some great performing tips (ERIC is even offering a special download of his marketed lecture material at a reduced price of $10, with ALL PROCEEDS generously being donated to RING 22!).  PLEASE JOIN US and ENJOY what promises to be a very informative and entertaining mini-lecture…

• We’re including an historic BLAST FROM THE PAST as DAVE WIRTH shares and explains one of those rare magical gems that he’s collected over the years, followed by a brief video tribute to a few of the great magi of the past.

• VP FRED LENTER will hold an informative and extremely provocative discussion, “ETHICS and MAGIC” (perhaps “extremely provocative” is a bit overstated, but our club discussions are always informative, to say the very least)!  

• RING 22 is also making plenty of time for YOU to share your latest magical excursions with our forever supportive, friendly crowd!

• Our MAGICAL GYRATIONS carry on long afterwards with our AFTERGLOW at the HIDEOUT!

Remember, we’re more than a monthly meeting, we’re a monthly SHOCKWAVE of OVERWHELMING MAGIC, and YOU are the GREASE that makes our club ENGINE run so smoothly!  GUESTS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME!
