President Spence has announced the meeting themes for our newly beginning magic year. He will be looking for a volunteer(s) to head up each month. The idea is that the volunteer will select and teach an effect from that month's reference book. Background information regarding the history of the trick would also be included. For the September meeting Steve Spence and Jim Croop will be the "volunteers."
