Just curious, could someone give a newbie the rundown of what an IBM club usually does throughout it's meetings, and considering I live in Canada...is it any different here?
Are there just lectures and how do the newbies fit in? |

Each ring is different. Where in Canada do you live? I'm in Windsor, Ontario myself and am on the board of Ring 116 (I've been President, Librarian, Secretary, Sargent at Arms). Ring 116/Windsor Magic Circle is also pretty unique in that you don't have be an IBM member to join (although it is greatly encouraged).
Our meetings consists of: Business (this ranges from setting up fundraising shows for the club to go towards lectures, news, issues with the club, ideas, discussions of current magical events) Magic performances (we simple go around the room and anyone wishing to show something can. They can also ask advice on how to do it better. Some people do a show and tell with their collections. Some give a mini lecture (up to 20 minutes). Open chatting. Simply put, the meeting is formally over but lots stick around to talk shop among other things. The meetings are pretty informal and a lot of laughter and fun is had throughout. Roasting is very common and creates good bonding opportunities. |

I went to my first IBM meeting and it was very nice.
When they went around the table to do trick I was really impressed with the performance. Someone did an MC based routine that was so elaborate and well put together that it made me forget it was MC and made me wonder how it was done |
