    You might have mentioned that Ubi the Clown will be there, twisting balloons and being hilarious. You might have mentioned that Angular Momentum will be there with hoop dancing and hoops for children of all ages. But then, you might not have. So you did not. They will be there, nonetheless. And everyone that attends will have a great time.
