Yule Ball Updates!

Hey guys! So the Yule Ball is slowly but surely coming together and we've got a couple of big announcements.

1) We will be starting our ticket pre-sale for HPA and Quidditch members this week! Here's how it works: At the meeting on Thursday, we'll be taking down names of everyone who wants a ticket. If you can pay for your ticket right there ($12 each), that's perfect. If you don't have the money with you, we'll hold your ticket for one week. Pay for it at the next meeting and you're good to go. If you don't have the money then, we'll have to take your name off the list. Note: This does NOT mean you can't buy a ticket; it just means we can't hold your spot. Due to limited space in the ballroom, we have to cap the number of tickets, and while I seriously doubt we're going to be selling out any time soon we also don't want to have some tickets on hold indefinitely and turn down people who want to go. For those who can't make the meetings, we'll be selling tickets on West Mall with Quidditch in the afternoons starting next week.

2) To help keep down costs and make this ball even more awesome, we will be having a dessert potluck! The Union catering service unfortunately does not offer any wizard delicacies, so we have to make due on our own. Those who feel so inclined are more than welcome to bring a batch of chocolate wands or peppermint toads (or Muggle treats too!). We'll have a sign up sheet at the meeting where you can put down what you think you'll want to make. Obviously with a month to go you can change your mind, just please let us know! We want to make sure we don't end up with twenty batches of butterbeer cookies. :)

If you have any questions, post in comments or send us an email. See you all on Thursday!
