BREVARD COUNTY • COCOA VILLAGE, FLORIDA – Magic Dove awarded two first-place winners in their annual Magic Dove Magician of the Year contest held Dec. 8.

Todd Bogue, of Port Orange, won for the adult division.

Justin Cowgill, a student at Rockledge High School, won the title in the youth division, and Megan Waryk, aka “Marvelous Megan,” won in the junior division, which marks her to be the first person to win this title three times.

Second place winners were Dr. Chad Lau, of Viera (adult division), Conner Harrell of Palm Bay (youth division), and Carter Concannon of Rockledge (junior division).

“Our little monthly contest has grown into an amazing event and we couldn’t be more excited,” said Dr. Dan Ezell, owner of Magic Dove Magic Shop—the sponsor of the event.

“Each year it keeps getting bigger and better,” said Ezell.

The first-place winners qualify to enter the Florida Magician of the Year Contest held in January each year at the Historic Cocoa Village Playhouse.

“This year will be the third year that we have partnered with The Historic Cocoa Village Playhouse for the Florida Magician of the Year Contest,” said Ezell.

The Magic Dove Magic Shop opened in 2006 in Cocoa Village, offering magic tricks and supplies for beginners and professionals. Magic Dove is not only the host of the Magician of the Year contest but also host to the world’s largest youth magic club – the Society of Young Magicians.
