Welcoming a new sponsor: The Sid Lorraine Hat & Rabbit Club

Welcome to our newest sponsor, the Sid Lorraine Hat & Rabbit Club (IBM Ring 17)!  

Founded in 1941, the Sid Lorraine Hat & Rabbit Club is Canada's oldest magic club and the only remaining IBM Ring in Toronto.  (Don't let the members of Ring 99 tell you any different.)

This season the club boasted an impressive array of guest lecturers including Paul Romhany, James Alan, Joshua Jay, Jeff Hinchliffe, Bernardo Sedlacek, Anthony Lindan, Richard Lyn, Phil Pivnick, BenTastic, Mel Magic, and Aaron Matthews.

Additionally, Ring 17 hosted a members' night consisting of member performances combined with a swap meet and flea market.  The club also gives back to the community annually.  For the past 3 years, they've raised money for the local food bank by hosting a virtual show put on by members.  Last but not least, they have very well attended monthly social magic jams!

The 2022-2023 executive includes:

    David Peck, President
    Colin Geddes, First VP
    Ian Crawford, Second VP
    Patrick Nemeth, Treasurer
    James Alan, Past President and
    Al Warren, Voting Member at Large

Thank you to the 2022-2023 executive of the Sid Lorraine Hat & Rabbit Club, for your sponsorship of Canada's Magic!
