Meeting Theme: Marked Cards Magic

The poster tells the story.

Using Jay Sankey’s card marking system found at: https://youtu.be/R9RlUcOsVaI, members create their own decks provided by the club and then learn four different magic tricks each one taught by a different member of the club (selected ahead of time).

Actually to save time we only took time for each participant to mark twenty cards or so. They could mark the rest of the deck at home if they wished.

We then divided the attending members into four table groupings – having a member teacher at each table with the teacher rotating to another table at pre-announced intervals.

Each table teaching included a practice session when each person at the table had a chance to practice the newly learned trick on another.

After two rotations of teachers, we held our raffle to add variety to the pacing.

Addition: We did have Larry Brodahl create a ten-minute video that each of our marked cards teachers watched in preparation of the trick they were going to teach – ensuring that best practices were being modeled in those tricks: https://vimeo.com/1051382826/b597e95d07
