> I think you could do it without having money. Get like one month for the kids to sign up, before 2 weeks you charge the money to comfirm who´s coming. After charging the money you order the yoyos. You will need a wide space and some chairs and maybe soda and water for the kids that come. You will also have to order some string, maybe 10 strings for each one that comes and if you can make it print out a small booklet on how to change the string and things like that.

thats a great idea also my dad told me that hie sister in law can set up a website where people can play with a credit card and pay pall!!!
now my only issue is advertisement and staff

That might not work on some days, due to high humidity or rain, heat, (heat = sweatiness = stringburn)
so you’ll have to go inside on some days. But I think if you really think it out and can handle it, yoyo camp could turn out really well. (I’d definitely go to yoyo camp)

If he can find ways to ensure the amount of people, yoyo’s and money then I say go for it. You really do need to find an indoor location. Some malls will let you yoyo. Community center or school gym. Gotta try.

I yoyoed back in middle school for the local library system as part of their summer reading program. I simply called up Yomega, told them what I was doing and they sent me a bunch of strings, firballs, some brains, and a BUNCH of literature. I don’t know if the world has changed much, but that’s my experience.
Teaching kids to yoyo was one of my dearest held memories. Do It!
And PM me if you think I can be of any more help. Austin, TX has always been one of the places I want to visit before I die, but I live way up in Olympia, WA.

It seems like local schools are pretty easy going with lending their gyms to you. But you probably won’t need somethign that big…
