11/17 Meeting Recap

• Texas Quidditch and the HPA will be selling Yule Ball tickets on West Mall from 12-2 tomorrow. If you can't make it to the meetings, come get your ticket then! Tickets are $12, cash only please.
• The shirts are finally on their way! They will get here the last week of classes, hopefully in time for our meeting that Thursday. If they aren't, or if you can't make the meeting, we will have them available for pick up during the Yule Ball.
• Since that is our last meeting and we will hopefully have shirts to pass out, we are cancelling the December 1 BookPeople volunteer sessions. Apologies to all of you who signed up, but I will see about setting up another date during dead week when you guys can come help out. Currently all of our other slots are filled, but if you are interested in helping out, let me know and I'll put you on our back up list in case any of our volunteers can't make it.
• Unfortunately our Operation Christmas Child plans have fallen through. OCC asks for a $7 donation per box to help with shipping costs, and while that's completely understandable and it's a fantastic organization, we also don't want to make you guys pay for that. Instead we'll be participating in Brown Santa, an organization that helps feed the homeless both in Austin and across Texas. Please bring a few canned goods to our meeting on December 1 to help out with this! Caleb will be posting a list of the specific items they need the most.
• Quidditch match tomorrow! Matches start at 6 PM Come out and cheer on the Texas Quidditch teams, fresh from the Quidditch World Cup. We will be selling concessions, Yule Ball tickets, and other fun HP items, so bring some cash! All proceeds go directly to making the Yule Ball that much more awesome. If you don't have a ride, you can catch the 1M bus at 24th and Guadalupe at 5:18 and get off at 51st and Lamar. I will do my best to meet you guys at the bus stop, but I have a meeting right before the match and might not be able to make it to the stop in time. You can also catch the IF UT shuttle at 5:30 at 26th and San Jacinto.
