[HPFGU-Movie] HP camp

[Valerie Flowe]

My 8 year old girls just started 'Summer at Hogwarts' camp this week. 
It's a 2 week day camp in the Northern Virginia area, sponsored by the 
Brownies.
My girls were hoping it would be at the Hogwarts castle (LOL!). It's a 
regular camp, but sounds like so much fun; I wish I were young again or 
  could take 2 weeks off my job to be a camp counselor! :-)
Their version of Professor Dumbledore is named Professor Irish. She 
greeted the kids wearing full length green robes with shamrocks on it, 
and a matching sorceror's hat. (It's been 100 degrees F, yesterday and 
today. Yikes!)
  They get sorted into houses with the sorting hat.
My girls' unit is called the Pygmy Puffs. They made cute little purple 
pygmy puffs,
then a magician came to entertain the 'school'.
Today is 'Dress as your favorite HP character' day. I put non-permanent 
orange hair coloring on my girls hair, and they became "Georgina and 
Frederika Weasley" (they are twins, but didn't want to be BOYS of 
course!) One kid dressed as "Snuffles" with a great black dog mask; 
another as the "Giant Squid" with tentacles all over her! I thought 
that one was quite clever.
They will also have "Bring your Owl to Camp" day; "Come as your true 
Animagus" day. Now doesn't that sound infinitely more exciting than my 
graphics job in the editorial dept. of a transportation 
association!!?!! :-O

Now back to reality...sigh...
