Photos from JoAnn (Swaim) Ireland

1996 Most Incredible

 My parents and I had a great time at the Groundhog Day Festival in 1996. We met lots of wonderful jugglers and have enjoyed seeing them at other juggling festivals since then.

Juggling has allowed me to meet lots of people and share juggling with them. I met my husband (who also juggles) at Penn State University where we were both studying mechanical engineering after he saw me juggling on a local news broadcast.
 
I’m sending four photos:


 
JoAnn Swaim 4-1996
 
The photo “JoAnn Swaim 4-1996” is of me juggling at around the time that I won the “Most Incredible” Phil in 1996. It was taken at the British Juggling Convention in Edinburgh , Scotland in April, 1996. At that convention I won second place in their Springboard competition, a competition for jugglers under 18 who wanted to show off their juggling skills.
 
As far as photos of me juggling recently, the most recent ones that I have are of my husband and me juggling at our wedding on April 14, 2007.
