The 21stYo Down Show Down contest/meet-up is coming up in Farmington, New Mexico on Friday, July 4th. The contest is a pretty relaxed free event to promote the “Art of Yo!” in the Four Corners and encourage more people to try string slinging. This event is geared to meeting other players in the area and having fun! I’m trying to get the word out about the contest to area players so feel free to forward this information/share the post. Sponsored by: YoYoExpert, Duncan Toys, and Yomega. Event is during a July 4th Ice Cream Social at the museum.
Poster created by Keni Designs (Kenisha Yazzie thrower & designer - volunteered to created the 2026 poster)
