Crystal Ball Events

On January 9th, 2009, enter the magical world of Landoll’s Academy of Sorcery and enjoy the yuletide Crystal Ball! Mingle with your fellow students and meet the professors. Learn a bit of the school’s history or partake in a beverage. After the feast, enjoy a stroll to the enchanted grotto or the fountain then dance the night away amongst the fairy lights. Who knows what surprises the evening may hold?

The Dancing

Our resident DJ, DJ Evil D (aka Gabe) of Evil Donkey Entertainment will be playing lighter music for us during dinner and after the plates are cleared, he'll kick it up a notch so we may enjoy the cornerstone entertainment of the Ball--dancing! Gabe will treat us to a variety of music sure to please dancers of all ages and backgrounds whether magical or muggle.

The Concert

In the tradition of our favorite Headmaster, we have invited a couple of bands to finish out the night's festivities! As of now, The Whomping Willows and Draco and the Malfoys have confirmed to play during the ball.

More information to come!

Silent Auction

To tie in many of our favorite fandom pursuits, there will be a silent auction featuring items created or donated by members.

Saturday Events

This year hp-ohio would like to help organize an event to be held locally in Loudonville before all of the attendees leave town. More information will be posted soon!

We will be making updates to this page regularly as more information becomes available (detailed menu, time schedule, etc.) Please check back!

The organizers are volunteers who will not receive any sort of payment for their work putting this together.
