Well, it was great to see this prolonged advertisement on YoYoExpert for Tony Alonso’s Bait Shop. I look forward to seeing how this “anonymous” production company makes use of your likenesses in their future endeavors. -bpg ---

Some sad news… Because of severe health issues in my family, the Eli Hops 2013 Event and Yoyo Battle has been cancelled. We are, however, going ahead with purchasing iPads for the special needs kids in Early Intervention. The applications are being sent out and with the money already raised we will be buying them in the coming months and we will photo document it all on Facebook and the forums. I want to extend my deepest thanks to all this years participants for being a part of the Eli Hops Family and I hope that all of you will join us again in 2014! Please feel free to message me if you have any questions. Also, keep your eyes here- we are planning some more fun stuff for you guys soon!
