We performed our stage act on the field at the Oakland A’s Stadium. Our audience was the team, the owners, their families, and a few other VIP’s. We were a hit! (to use a lame baseball reference). You could even say we knocked it out of the park (…yup, even lamer.)

We only got to do it for a couple of days but it was a blast. The Diamond Jubilee Revue featured Jack and Jeri, ventriloquist Steve & Jack, 11-year-old singing sensation Avonlee, and Valentine’s Performing Pigs! What more entertainment could you want.

On July 22 at the Mayo Civic Center in Rochester, MN, Jack produced the XJuggling Best Trick Competition of the International Jugglers’ Association. (Jack also hand-made the medals.)
This was the 6th year in a row Jack has produced this event, with some of the best jugglers in the world competing, and it was the most successful event yet.
Here’s a clip on YouTube.

Here’s a picture of when we visited our local mall and found his picture on a store display:

It’s great to be acknowledged by one’s peers. In June we were invited to be the special guests at the Boulder Juggling Festival (Colorado, not juggling boulders) where we performed for an audience that included over 100 jugglers.
