Facebook Event Page- it went down, but we're still on!

We had some technical difficulties with our facebook event page yesterday and had to recreate a new one.  Much of that information is here on the Blog or the Website, but we just want to reassure eveyone that the event is still going and going strong. You can find the new event page here:

Over Flowing with Thanksgiving and Donations

This past weekend was Thanksgiving in Canada and the Limestone city Juggle & Flow fest is Over Flowing with Thanks to all our great sponsors!

We have even more donations that have arrived in the mail!

A beautiful set of bright yellow and orange px3"s from Renegade, and a whole collection of flow items from Jolly Lama including a diabolo, poi and a devilstick!

Make sure you join us for the fun at the fest and be thankful to our great sponsors.

Jorden Moir! Featured performer at the LCJF Gala Show!

Jorden Moir has been amazing audiences with his skills for years and most recently won the silver medal in the International Juggling Association Championships. See the clip below.
If you check out his youtube channel you'll find that he has been creating a wide range of new material including shaker cups, ping pong paddles and more. What's always astonishing is to see how he uses his entire body, hands, feet, legs and all in his routines.  I can barely jump rope, Jorden jumps rope while juggling a ball with his feet ! and that's just hie warm-up stuff.  You'll definitely want to see him in this years Gala show

New donations keep arriving!!

We are so grateful the Sponsors who donate to our event each year.
Today I received in the mail these beautiful, handcrafted with care, bright blue bags from Drops Props.

Sarah Smith has been making these high quality bags with care for several years now and I 've watched them survive some hard  workouts without ever breaking a seam. (Unlike some of the commercial beanbags I bought in the early days.)

This is the best part though, they are machine washable! Play with them outside, play with them in the grass and dirt, then throw them in the wash with your juggling t-shirt and jeans and they're good to go once again!
Check the website for complete information about these great 100% canvas beanbags. http://www.dropprops.com/


Of course, thanks to Sarah at Drop Props for supporting the LcJF once again.

Juggle and Flow - go with the flow! LcJF 2016

The Queens and Kingston jugglers are pretty excited about the upcoming Limestone City Juggle & Flow festival on October 15-16th.

Take a look at the video shot on location at Sugar Creek Glenn campground in Dansville NY
Better still, join us at the festival.

Juggle & Flow ? What does that mean?

Despite what you might think juggle and flow  has nothing to do with putting your juggling props in a mountain stream. It is about combining the practices of juggling with balls, clubs and rings with the more movement oriented arts like hooping, sticking, staff work and spinning.  The Flow arts institute describes it as "Flow Arts is a general term used to describe the intersection of a variety of movement-based disciplines including dance, juggling, fire-spinning, and object manipulation."   This yearsLimestone City Juggle Fest promises to combine both as  it brings together great Jugglers and  Flow artists from all over.

So whether you already love to hoop and juggle, want to learn,  or just want to see what it's like the LCJF is the place to be. Join us on Oct 15-16, in Kingston Ontario.
