FROG FORECAST: Lofty leaps likely if Mother Nature cooperates.
Frogtown, CA....Competitors at this weekend’s Jumping Frog Jubilee in Angels Camp are hoping for warm weather. It was a hot Sunday afternoon back in 1986 when Lee Guidici of Santa Clara set the current World’s Record with his frog Rosie the Ribiter who jumped 21 feet, five and ¾ inches in three leaps. This year the Bozo Frog Team from Sacramento will try for an unprecedented fourth win in a row. The family team has won the title for past three years, each time barely falling short of the World’s Record....

Qualifying rounds are held daily during the Calaveras County Fair and Jumping Frog Jubilee, which is Thursday through Sunday, May 13-16 at Frogtown, located south of Angels Camp on Highway 49.
The 50 longest leapers will face off in the Grand Finals at 2 p.m. on Sunday.
Many of the competitors come from Frog Teams that have been competing for as many as 50 years – three generations of frog-enthusiast families.
This is the 82ndt annual Jumping Frog Jubilee which celebrates Mark Twain’s famous story The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County. The original event was held in 1928 to celebrate the paving of Main Street in Angels Camp. It was combined with the Calaveras County Fair in 1938 and has become an iconic event of international fame.
This year’s fair theme honors the man who started it all -- “Celebrating the Wit and Wisdom of Mark Twain.”
