The World Hoop Day 2008 countdown is on. Last year, hoopers of all ages synchronized their swivel-hips on six continents to celebrate the birth of the first global hooping event. This year, World Hoop Day will grow to encompass more countries, donate more hoops, and bring more people joy around the world. And yes, there is a contest this time around with Groovehoops donating a PsiHoop for the person or team that raises the most money and gives away the most hoops on August 8, 2008. 3 Aircraft Aluminum Circus Hoops from Cirque Du Soleil are being donated for second place as well. It's all about the giving anyway and events are starting to come together all over the planet. If you haven't already done so, start your WHD planning now. Get into the mix on the WHD MySpace. Add your events to the WHD Calendar. Become a sponsor. Let's rock the hooping planet!
