Can you believe that tomorrow is Groundhog Day? It seems like just yesterday…and the day before. Do you think it counts as not seeing his shadow if he’s too cold to even stick his nose out the door to look? My girlfriend has been dropping hints about “that important holiday coming up in February,” and honestly I’ve never seen anyone that excited about groundhogs before. Maybe she means President’s Day or Mardi Gras?
Hello, I’m Paul from Wunderground Magic with some exciting facts about the month of February…it’s cold. Ummm, how about if we just talk about magic instead?
Classes
Everyone loves magic. Learn it where the professionals teach. Children’s Classes
Children’s classes are held in the secret dungeons of Wunderground Magic. If you know a youngster interested in magic, this is a great way to learn to perform.
Children’s classes are held every Saturday morning from 10 until 11 AM. Adult Magic Workshop
The next adult workshop is tomorrow, Tuesday, February 2. We were going to do something special for Groundhog Day, but since no one around here had a groundhog we’re doing money magic instead. Bring $20 and watch it disappear.
Adult magic workshops are held the first Tuesday of each month from 6:30 until 8 PM. Advanced Magic Workshop
Advanced workshops for ages 14 and over are a great way to sharpen your magic skills. The next Advanced Workshop will be February 16 for the exorbitant fee of $30.
Advanced workshops are held the third Tuesday of each month from 6:30 until 8 PM.
