So, me and lots of the guys from Plymouth yoyo club have been wanting a Michigan states to go on for a while, and I was wondering what the basics to organzation of a contest are. I know this is probably a very detailed subject that would take while to go into in intricacy, but I really just wanna know a few things to get the road to MI states started. Thanks! ---

I’d help you with this, asked to join the club on FB but have gotten no response. Can you get with me on this? I’m a noob compared to the competition guys, but I’d be all about growing the yo-yo fan base in the Mitt. ---

Find a venue first that will work for the event and your budget. Then go from there.
