Schools, consent forms and volunteering

But I need the torches and machetes in it or else it's not the same. It's imperative. But I'm not at all familiar with whether our society has gotten so protective and restrictive that this is impossible to do or not.

But I agree, I'd probably enjoy it lots either way.

I'd be really surprised if you could get away with this. I think the juggling program is a cool idea and you and the kids would probably both get a lot out of it, but I seriously doubt that torches or machetes would be allowed.

Are you [censored] nuts? They are not going to let elementary school kids within 10 feet of a torch or machete.

If I was the school principle and you came to me with this proposal, I would think to myself "The only juggling this guy is gonna teach these kids is juggling his nuts in their mouth." And then I'd call the cops.

As a parent of a two Minnesota elementary school students I am not signing a release to allow a amature juggler to teach my kids how to juggle torches and machetes. Of course, my kids take after me and are quite clumsy. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]
