SUMMARY:July 2026 Club Meeting
DESCRIPTION:🎩 IBM Ring 60 – July Monthly Meeting 🎩\nChristmas in July\nWe are officially into the summer. So\, let’s celebrate by sipping cool beverages\, Christmas cookies\, some savory treats while enjoying an evening of warm fellowship while having a fun magical evening. It is time once again for our annual “Christmas in July.” This means a time of gift giving and receiving. We have invited members of the Austin S.A.M. Assembly #206 to join us\, too. Why wait until December? Let’s do it in July! \n\nFor those not familiar with what we do\, we exchange “white rabbit” (think “white elephant”) gifts with one another. Numbers are selected by each person who brought a gift. Then participants will select a gift from the table (in numerical order). If you prefer\, then you can “steal” someone else’s gift rather than picking a wrapped gift. But “steals” can only happen twice. After a gift is “stolen” the second time\, then that gift can no longer be “stolen.” \nEveryone is encouraged to participate by bringing a wrapped gift\, (preferably something magic related) with a value of no more than $25; however\, if you have something in your closet or garage that has more value and you can’t wait until next year’s auction\, then wrap it up and bring it along. If you don’t have anything or you forget\, don’t worry. Come anyway because we will have extra gifts and enough for everybody. \nIt’s going to be a hootin’\, hollerin’ great evening of fun. And there will be Christmas cookies\, and savory treats served with sodas! If you like to bake\, then feel free to bring some treats for the group. We can never have too many sweets. After all…it’s Christmas…in July! \nDon’t Forget: \n\nWrapped gift\nMagic related (book\, prop\, gimmick\, etc.)\nValue less than $25\n\nWhen: July 7th\, 2026 (Tuesday)\nTime: 7:00 p.m.\nWhere: Heroes Night Out (Heroes Resource Center)\n1150 South Bell Blvd.\nCedar Park\, TX 78613

SUMMARY:October 2026 Club Meeting
DESCRIPTION:IBM Ring 60 – October Monthly Meeting\n \n IBM Ring 60 – October 2026 Monthly Meeting \n Date: Tuesday\, October 6\, 2026\n Time: 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM\n Location: Heroes Night Out\n1150 S Bell Blvd\, Building 5\, Cedar Park\, TX 78613 \n Monthly Topic: Bizarre Magic\nPresented by Brian Lester \nCome closer… much closer. \nThis October\, just in time for Halloween\, IBM Ring 60 invites you to step beyond traditional magic and enter the mysterious\, unsettling\, and wonderfully strange world of Bizarre Magic. \nWhat transforms a simple magic trick into an experience your audience will remember long after the performance is over? Brian Lester will explore how storytelling\, atmosphere\, mystery\, and the macabre can turn an effect into something far more powerful. \nWhether you’re already a practitioner of the bizarre or have always wondered exactly what Bizarre Magic is\, this presentation offers an introduction to the stories\, secrets\, techniques\, and strange beauty behind this fascinating branch of the magical arts. \n Enter the World of Bizarre Magic\nDiscover Bizarre Magic tricks\, illusions\, and effects featuring eerie\, surreal\, mysterious\, and sometimes shocking themes. Learn how performers use storytelling and atmosphere to create suspense\, build anticipation\, and blur the line between theatrical magic and the seemingly supernatural. \nWe’ll also explore some of the magicians\, creators\, and memorable moments that helped establish Bizarre Magic as its own distinctive style of performance. \n Magic History: The History of Bizarre Magic\nPresented by Burt Rosenbluth \nThe journey into the shadows continues as Burt Rosenbluth presents a special Magic History program devoted to Bizarre Magic. Explore the origins and evolution of the genre and discover some of the legendary performers and creators who helped shape this eerie and enchanting side of our art. \n Open Mic\nWe’ll finish the evening with our Open Mic\, giving Ring 60 magicians an opportunity to perform\, experiment with new material\, or share something they’ve recently been working on. \nAnd considering the season and this month’s theme… perhaps this is the perfect night to bring something a little strange\, spooky\, or unexplained. \nThe lights are dimming. The stories are beginning. Are you ready to discover the darker side of magic? \n Guests are welcome. Join IBM Ring 60 for a Halloween-season evening of mystery\, history\, storytelling\, and Bizarre Magic! \n \nWhen: October 6th\, 2026 (Tuesday)\nTime: 7:00 p.m.\nWhere: Heroes Night Out (Heroes Resource Center)\n1150 South Bell Blvd.\nCedar Park\, TX 78613
