Although I have nothing to do with a potential contest, I wouldn’t lose hope at this early point in the year. Contests these days tend not to be announced very early. ---

Hello thrill seekers, the holiday schedule is as follows, November 18th, 4-6 , as usual the third Saturday of the month. December 17th, 3-5, this is the third Sunday in December, and an hour earlier than normal. Should I say normal or usual? ---

Wow, we have been meeting every month since May of 2015. Excuse me while I pat myself on the back for a second. Ouch. Anyways, the almost famous Raleigh NC yo-yo club will meet again (in Cary, cuz that’s how we roll) on Dec 28th at the Science Safari. Bring a date , ladies get in free. ---

So every 2 or 3 years I bump this thread. We are still meeting the 3rd Sat every month at Science Safari. It’s my understanding there is a Facebook or Reddit notice but I still have hopes someone will stumble upon the club through the forum. ---

No, but Ed Haponik used to have a meet north of Charlotte at a Learning Center. There was to a strong core of players down that way. They also had an NC state contest in that area some years ago. Fool disclosure, I have no idea how younger folks communicate these days, but I would guess if you put the word out you could find enough interest to start a club in that area.
