NY AHPERD - Catskill Zone

Last week I had the distinct pleasure of traveling to New York for a one day mini-conference in Circleville, NY. This conference was sponsored by the NYAHPERD's Catskill Zone. There were over 220 participants at the conference. There were 5 presenters at the conference this year including Noodle Games. I had three presentation slots and was very busy. The teachers who attended the sessions were awesome and most participated during the presentation.

One of the teachers was kind enough to take some photos of the first session. Please look below to see a slideshow from that collection of photos.

Trip to New York

Made it home safely from the wonderful state of New York this afternoon. What a trip!!!

In addition to having two successful presentations this weekend (Noodle Mania and Socci), I was able to get my brother to join me on the road trip, stay with a close personal friend, Kevin, and his wife, and we were joined by another buddy, Dave (who flew into town from North Carolina).

Three days later.......and lots of Wii, delicious beverages, good food, and excellent company, it's easy to say that the trip to NY was a blast. I am already looking forward to heading back next year.

2008 NY AHPERD Zone E Mini-Conference @ C.W. Post

Well, Noodle Mania had another successful presentation opportunity at the 2008 NY AHPERD, Zone E Mini-Conference. There were over 50 participants who attended the session. After the session I was able to sell 25 Noodle Mania books and gave away 2 Noodle Packs. Dee and Shannon appeared very excited to receive their prize!

It was a little noisy in the gym due to a very loud sound system being used on the other side of the gym, however, with a little patience, a lot of yelling, and squeezing together as a group, we made it work. I was able to demonstrate a variety of fun and innovative noodle activities in the hour that I had to present. We covered partner activities, instant activities, large group games, and sport skill activities during the presentation.

The entire conference looked to be a tremendous success. There were over 250 participants. Congrats to Dr. Mara Manson and the rest of the conference staff for an excellent job! Also, special thanks to my proctor for the session, Ryan. He was a tremendous help and took some fine photos of the presentation which will be posted on the NoodleGames website (http://noodlegames.net) soon.
