Building upon the success of last year, the second annual Kansas State YoYo Contest has been scheduled! May 12th, 2012 at the state of the art Kansas Children’s Discovery Center in Topeka, KS! The venue is brand new. We will be located in a climate controlled room, fitted with a stage and lighting for our contest! The venue has on site vending machines, along with restaurants nearby. Plenty of room for spectators. I anticipate this will be one of the most comfortable contests in the country!
We will have YoYo and Accessories vending at the contest as well! Duncan YoYos and The Square Wheels YoYo Company will both have tables selling their gear! We will also be doing our raffle to benefits Kansas City Retired Greyhounds as Pets! Many companies have given towards this cause, and now is your chance to win!
Trophies are being supplied by Kansas City master toy maker and sculptor Just Colcord. Check out some of his work,
We have 5 divisions, including 2 brand new divisions this year.
