Fundraising Parties!!



June 12th
The Parlour
250 W. 86th St
New York, NY
8:00 PM
$10

The New York party was a lot of fun (and not a bad fundraiser too!). We had a great time bringing together seasoned twisters and people who've never touched a balloon in their life. Special thanks to everyone who attended and donated and especially to The Parlour for being such a gracious host and to our twister friends, Lanna Lee Maheux, Sheree Brown-Rosner, Mike Gold, Juggles, Glitter and Lil Twister for all their help.

Boston was a blast! Bob the Balloon Swallower was a huge hit as was the new trailer. Special thanks to the Asgard, Bob Nixon, Royal Sorrell, Mark Donahue, Charlie Fogarty, Glenna Thompson, Bruce Lawson, Joe Vechionne and all the twisters who came to the event. EXTRA special thanks to Jonathan Beller who's beautiful photo we used on our invitations (and who we totally forgot to thank at the party...).
