HSKS 8 - Summer Camp

Some of you spent a little time with me on Thursday and caught my excitement for the next swap. Yes! Excitement is contagious! Neila, Bevin, and quite a few others have given me incredible encouragement over the last few weeks.

During the morning tea a few of us began to get excited about the theme for the next HSKS. We've decided to make the next theme a Summer Camp theme. We're still working out what types of kits we'll swap, but the kits will definitely contain items that you would take with you to camp or send with your kids when they go to camp. Our games will be different than the regular Quidditch games and we'll have a full 3 months to complete our awesome packages because the swap is going to run from Monday, June 8th to Saturday, August 29th. Join the excitement!
