Howdy Hoopsters,
We met Charlotte at Barton Springs on First Saturday, and she is organizing a hoop-making drive for kids at Safe Place and other places that could use some joy and hoopy fun. This is really most to the point of World Hoop Day! Basically there is an ongoing hoop-making party at the Austin Artistic Reconstruction Warehouse on up to WHD, then a delivery schedule for the day of HOOOOPS! You want to do this, right? Also they could use donations, drinks, $$, hoopmaking supplies, etc. Each of the hoops will incorporate an encouraging message for a kid who really needs it.

The World Hoop Day HooParade and Flash Mob is a merry gang, with hoopers and drummers, supersoakers and other support crew. We start at 5:30 at the Backside/Southside of Barton Springs, the parking lots off of Robert E Lee. There is an absolutely gorgeous photo/video op for the end of the parade, shooting from the Lamar Street Bridge towards the Lamar Pedestrian Bridge. This will be our moment to remember!

For our evening's entertainment, we have DJ's, hooping instruction, vendors, fire hoop performance by Sage, and general hoop jam fun at Hot Mama's Espresso Bar, 2401 E 6th Street. $10 suggested donation benefiting World Hoop Day.

Hoop to see y'all all there!
