| What can you expect from the U.M.A.? Magic, Fun and Fellowship. (Click here for U.M.A.'s Charter) Our club is not only a social group sharing common interests, but also that we serve a purpose for the Local Magic Community.
U.M.A. welcomes all Magician's of various skill levels, exploring a gamut of study interests, by sharing our diversity of experiences and backgrounds. Our club is an initiation for newcomers, a venue for pros to talk shop and a great communication conduit to spread the word and stay in touch with what’s happening magically in our area.
Little Business – More Magic. A great way to start every meeting … with Magic! We open every meeting with a PRESENTATION. We hope to keep club business to a minimum. Every meeting is dedicated to sharing Magic (Not Secrets). A Normal Meeting consists of these elements.
- Open with Magic - a member will open with a presentation.
- Welcome guests and visitors and acknowledge new members.
- Hocus Pocus Focus - A chance to focus the group's attention on any magic interest.
Whether showing off the latest store bought trick , ask for a critique on your performance, guide the group through a technique, highlight new material in magazines or other media, or just demonstrate whatever you're working on.
- Trick of the Month - a quick raffle for a few novel tricks. (At least 6 people to play.)
- Short Break - Snacks welcome, soda vending machine available. (Accepts dollars.)
- What's Next - Officers announcements on upcoming events.
- Mix, Mingle & Magic - Second half of the meeting allows members to catch up with friends,
share opinions on new products, various media, and practice new moves for each other.
