Owl: Sent to Parents of Campers Who: Ari, all parents of campers What: An informational packet sent to parents of campers When: July 23, 2024 Status: Complete unless there are parents - or children posing as parents - with questions.
Greetings, Parents -
Enclosed, you will find an informational packet that should cover most aspects of the camp, but I'll take a moment to highlight the really important bits in this note to ensure it isn't missed.
Camp will be running from Saturday, August 1st, until Saturday, August 22nd. August 1st will encompass arrival and settling in, as well as an informational meeting to establish the parameters of the camp, and the goals of the Muggle experience. The campers will be delivered back to King's Cross Station by the evening of August 22nd, barring any difficulties with the train.
We'll be using several rented cabins in the West Dorset area, and the campers will take both rail and bus to arrive at the campsite.
There will be no use of wands while at the camp; any wand found will be confiscated for the duration of the camp. This is to ensure there's no cheating for the over-17s.
The campers will be supervised by myself as well as 2-3 other counselors, depending on our final tally of attendees. Boys and girls will be kept in separate cabins to reduce the risk of shenanigans. The counselors and I will have wands for emergencies, and the Hogwarts healer, Ashley Wolffe, will be on call for any injuries that should occur that cannot be immediately tended by Muggle first-aid.
While you parents are allowed to send owls, we are encouraging the campers to use the Muggle post to deliver mail - so there will be a slight delay in delivery.
Should you have any questions or concerns, do feel free to owl me at any time.
Sincerely,
Ariana Silver Professor of Muggle Studies Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
[ Enclosed - various pamphlets detailing the camp area and camp activities, as well as a check list of what the students should and should not bring]
