I posted this on the HP movie list, and someone suggested I should post it 
here, so here goes!  There's a new festival as part of the Kentucky Derby 
festivities this year, called Village Place.  It takes place at the 
Louisville Slugger Park in Louisville (yes, "Louisville Slugger" like the 
baseball bat -- it's a ball park).  There are various "villages" as part of 
Village Place, one of which is the Children's Village.  The Children's 
Village will feature a Harry Potter section.  I don't know what all is 
planned for that area (since I'm in another "Village"), but I was told by one 

of the organizers that they will have the Lego Grand Master Builders there 
creating a 15 foot tall "Hagrid."  I will try to get a photo of it so I can 
share it with the rest of you, but no guarantees!  The festival is May 1-3 
and the hours are 10 AM to 10 PM (I think -- my brain is fuzzy with all the 
work of getting ready to go). You can watch the Derby Saturday afternoon on 
the giant screens in the ball park.  For more info on the festival 
(directions, etc.), click here:   <A HREF="http://villageplace.org/villageplace.htm">Village Place - A Derby Experience Unlike 
Any Other.</A>  (And if you'd like to meet a fellow Potter fan, look for me in 
the entrance of the Fine Arts Village -- Equine Art by Lynda Sappington -- 
I'd love to meet fellow Potter fans!)
