Hello Everyone:
Just wanted to alert you that there will be no July or August SAM#12 meetings. Its summer vacation time. Have fun!
We will be back with a great lecture (free for SAM#12 members) on Tuesday, September 18th at 7 pm featuring Steve Marshall who is well know for his skill with dice. He was trained by Jim Zachary (who wrote the book on Dice Stacking). The lecture will be held at the Regency Woods Apartments Community room in Minnetonka.
Our next official meeting will be on Friday, September 28th (moved back one week to not conflict with the Houdini Club of Wisconsin Magic Convention) at 7 pm at Eagle Magic and Joke Store in Burnsville. Have a great summer!

The theme will be “Dice.” Do a dice stacking routine; show how the numbers on opposite sides of the dice can magically change; cause the dice to shrink or change colors. Or how about a dice box effect? Never say die. See what you can up with! And remember if you perform at the meeting you will be eligible to win a magic trick donated by one of the gracious dealers who have contributed to the SAM 12 “Performance Award!”

Incomprable, unequalled, distinctive, different, unique, eccentric, silly, fun, clever or just plain unparalleled.

It will be held at Eagle Magic and Joke Store on 11995 County Road 11 in Burnsville at 7 pm. Practice up and bring a trick that fits one of the adjectives above. See you then!
