Mixing up a plan for a presentation? Need a collaborator? Have a particular kind of programming you'd like to see? Here's where you can get a running start and dive into the presentation portion of the event. We'll have three levels of programming available:

1) Informal
2) Formal
3) Youth

Calls for proposals are coming later in the year, so be on the lookout for your opportunity to be a part of this amazing event!

Just thinking that they're should be some good house pride programming. It'd be nice to have strong programming involving the cannon houses. At past conventions the Hufflepuffs always have their parade, but I would like it to get even more crazy than that (in a good way) and with all four of the houses.

I'd LOVE to see a Wizard Pride Parade in downtown Boston...but I'm not sure we could pull that off. HAHA, can you imagine?! Wizards on parade. I'm not sure Boston's ready for something like that! hahaha.

Great suggestion, 89ravenclaw. We will certainly keep that in mind! Thank you!

I can only imagine all of the pictures that will be taken at LeakyCon in general... IT WILL BE MADNESS!!! (but the totally good/awesome kind)

House pride will most definitely be in the equation though.... wink.gif

Would there be any interest in a wizarding tour of MIT? I am an alum and I would love to organize it. It would include all the standard campus tour components, mixed in with some Harry Potter themed fun. In the past MIT students have been very into the release of potter books and movies "hacking" (pulling pranks) on campus to commemorate these events.

This past summer for the release of DH the dark mark appeared on campus

As well as a place for parking your broomstick.

We also live in dormitories according to personalities, much like the students at Hogwartz.

I think the parade idea sounds amazing. Let's see if we can make it bigger than the St. Patrick's Day one!

If you don't think Boston sees stranger everyday you'd be wrong. I have pictures of people in duck costumes celebrating a birthday on the common. Wizards would hardly get a glance, maybe we can get some of the duck boats and pull a Championship parade style?

I concur. A band of wizards and witches won't make the citizens of Boston bat an eyelash. It would be cool to do something with the duck boats, if nothing else but for the fact that people could make it a joint parade/sightseeing event.

I was thinking that it might be cool to have a screening of the We Are Wizards documentary that Melissa's featured in. I saw it a couple of weeks ago and it was amazing! I don't know if it will have had a wider release by the time LeakyCon arrives, but if not, it would be a great opportunity for people who haven't been able to catch it!
