MKO is being renamed/rebranded as NAKO (North American Kendama Open). This year we are changing the name of the Minnesota Kendama Open to the North America Kendama Open, or NAKO. We are excited because we changed the dates to October 4,5, and 6 so the event doesn't fall on Halloween again. We have also changed the venues and we cant wait! This years event is going tot be the best yet. Save the date! October 4, 5, 6 (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) 2019 Delta Hotels by Marriott Minneapolis Northeast - 5 minutes from the Sweets shop. Varsity Theater - Last day venue (7-8 minutes from hotel) Here is the current schedule for the event. Here's a layout map of the hotel to help find the activities.
We are less than a month away from the North American Kendama Open! Info here: https://sweetskendamas.com/pages/nako Signup here: https://challonge.com/events/NAKO2019#/ Ask Questions here: https://www.downspike.com/threads/nako-2019-questions-answers-discussion.5212/
Yes. We always need more judges and volunteers. Send an email to [email protected] if you want to help out!
Is it pronounced N-EH-KO or N-AH-KO? Is it too late to start a petition to make the 'A' silent and just say NKO? Its really close to MKO, you can just kinda mumble over it and suddenly its just like the good ol days again...
I come in Thursday morning SUPER EARLY at around 9:30am So will either try and link up with some people and kill time around downtown Minneapolis at around 11am or just wait until i can get to the hotel to check in and take a nap
