August Meeting Notes

Our August meeting was yesterday, and here is a summary of what we talked about:

Operation Write Home - This is a new project for us. We are making cards for soldiers as part of Operation Write Home. (www.operationwritehome.org) We made some cards at the meeting, and we hope to continue this project for a bit.

TerraCycle - Thank you to everyone who has been collecting candy wrappers for us to send to TerraCycle! We will be sending off a shipment this week, but this is going to be an ongoing project. For each candy wrapper that we send to TerraCycle, they make a small donation to the HPA!

Magical Acts of Warmth - We are knitting snuggles for the Snuggles Project (www.snugglesproject.org) and afghan squares for Warm Up America (www.warmupamerica.org). We will be continuing this for another few weeks.

Craft Fair - We are still crafting away for the craft fair that we are participating in in the fall!

Wrock The Vote - To register to vote online, please go here, www.thehpalliance.org/wrockthevote. We are hoping to participate in this voter registration campaign in person. More details on that will be posted here if/when that is confirmed!

Halloween - We talked about Halloween a bit at our meeting. We haven't definitively decided on a project yet, but we do have some fun ideas!

Next Meeting - Our next chapter meeting will be Saturday September 11th.

Dumbledore's Army of Delaware County is a chapter of the Harry Potter Alliance. To learn more about the HPA in general, please visit www.thehpalliance.org.
