Hey MTACkers!
During our September meetings, we’ll be heavily focused on the Mississauga Literary Festival. Not only will we be promoting the club at the event, our club has been assigned to design a book truck for the book truck parade. Last year was so much fun, our club really brought up a lot of energy to the festival. Please contact me ASAP if you are able to volunteer this year (and if you’ll be coming in costume).
Mississauga Literary Festival happens on Sept 19th, 11-3pm.
Sept. 3rd –The Friday after Fan Expo. We’ll have some Fan Expo discussions where you can show off your findings/treasures. We’ll also brainstorm on a design for the book truck. This truck will represent Children’s Services, so think of titles we can incorporate on the truck (even Manga/graphic novel titles from the Junior section). If you are planning on cosplaying for the festival, here’s your chance to also work on your costumes.
Sept. 10th – The following week, we’ll have another work session on the book truck and/or cosplay costumes.
Sept. 17th – The last Friday before the Festival. Finishing touches on the book truck and your cosplay costumes.
Oct 22nd and 29th– With Halloween not far away from these dates, we’ll be constructing a haunted house in the Craft Room like last year’s big success! And we’ll be planning on opening the Haunted House for two dates. Let me know if you’ll be able to volunteer in working the Haunted House for October 23rd and October 30th.
Hope to hear from you guys soon and see you at Fan Expo!
