I have the knives in the trunk and will bring them to juggling this
Friday. If Ben shows up with his set, maybe there will be passing.
Remember close toed shoes!
I shot some more video on Friday of the Damentos (Kim did the shots
with me in it). Then I used Movie Maker to edit a bunch of the shots
together. The result can be viewed by clicking or cutting and pasting
the link below (warning this is a 7 MB file):

If you have a slow connection, you might be able to download the
YouTube version of the video substantially faster, but it's not nearly
as high quality:

Enjoy!
Mark your calendars for these two upcoming regional festivals. If
Portland is too distant, definitely try to make the Berkeley
festival.

Oct 10-12, 2008 Berkeley Juggling Festival
http://berkeleyjuggling.org/festival/
Tips:
Best day to go is usually Saturday whether to watch the show or to
just see the most people out juggling. If you want to buy props,
best bet, if you haven't pre-ordered, is to gather around their
table as soon as they set up if you want several balls of the same
type, etc. If you want a t-shirt or to see the show, buy a
ticket/shirt as soon as you get there because sometimes regional
festivals sell out.
Hey everyone,
I told these folks at BloodSource in Mather that I would stop by for 2
hours on my way out of town and have some fun with people at their
Employee Appreciation day. They have an outside event set up for like
300 people and it's a circus theme.
I have been sick in bed for 8 days and was SURE I'd be better, but
this morning I am still - well, I'll spare you the green details.
I wonder if there is someone who could do this? There is pay and they
are really nice people... way low-key on the phone and they just want
to have some fun, interactive stuff going on.
Please call me ASAP cause I am about to call and cancel and I'd love
to tell them I have someone else to replace me.
Thanks.

Finally Friday and time for juggling fun! Last week, Karl and Nolan
even joined us for some club passing. See you there!
If you are not celebrating Monica's birthday down in Ventura, you're
welcome to juggle with us in Sacramento.

I should be available just about any weekday during the times
mentioned - so if someone else wants to join in, I can be flexible on
when we do it. Or, I can do it solo.

Susan Benson from the Sacramento Libraries contacted me to see if we
could do a teaching jugging gig on a
Tues or Thurs 3pm in
Sept or Oct
This looks like it is in Natomas (north of Arco Arena).
"Would DAMENTO be available for a juggling program at the North
Natomas Library on any Tuesday or Thursday in September or October?
The branch would like to have the group present a program after
school at 3 pm. (North Natomas Library is located at Inderkum High
School )."
Are there people who are available to do this during the weekday? If
so which date would you be able to commit to?
Let me know ASAP so I can get back to Susan Benson.
Thanks!

If the front is still blocked off, meet on the H Street side between
the rose garden and duck pond. Last week, we had somewhat of an
audience since there was slow moving car traffic on H St.
Looks like a bit of a freak show, art happening in September for
anyone who wants to go participate.

Hi jugglers,
We would love for you all to come hang out and juggle at the Circus
Show and Other Atrocities.
http:// www.abitchinspace.com
The show is in Sacramento, Saturday the 13th of September 2008 from
5pm to 10pm. We also are having a parade before the event in midtown.
We are open to any skill level. but if you have a team of
accomplished jugglers we can scedule them on the stage, otherwise
juggling around the event will be wonderful.
Please give me a call if you are at all interested.

p.s. I forgot to add, crazy, freaky, strange, cool costumes
encouraged but not necessary!

Last Friday we filmed some Damento club passing. The cameraman was
positioned right in the middle of the pattern (a five person star),
and he turned a complete circle to film each juggler in turn.
Because you only see one person at a time, you can't really tell the
shape of the pattern, but I thought it was a pretty cool effect.
Check it out:

Greetings Rhonda,
Around what date and time would you be interested in a preformance? I am
sure we can arrange something, I will send out an e-mail to see if anyone
is interested in a demonstration.

Whoa! Holey moley! I drove by and it looks like the Caddyshack gopher
wins. Thanks for the heads up, David.
Okay, let's meet between the duck pond and rose garden on the Alhambra
and H St corner. Looks like there's parking down H St and at that
corner. I should be there close to 6pm.

The normal juggling spot is fenced off at the moment for a major pipe
laying exercise as is much of the lawn on the other side of the
library. I don't know if it will be open by tomorrow eve or not. The
lawn behind the library is all open.

If you want to juggle this Friday on the 4th of July, please post here
otherwise my guess is that most people will be off doing 4th of July
things. So, unless you post, no organized juggling on Friday at
McKinley.
Happy 4th of July!
Renaissance fair at Fair Oaks Park this weekend. Vote was slightly
skewed for Sunday, but I'm going Saturday. If you want to meet up
with me, try 10am at the front gate and either 11am at the gate or at

Hello Damentos,
I just wanted to share Matt "poki" McCorkle's blog with you all. He
is on a bicycle tour this summer to find all the circus folk on the
west coast. The pictures are beautiful! It's also really
