Congratulations to the Winners!!!

Congratulations to the 1st and 2nd place winners of the Harry Potter Trivia Competition: Anne from Hufflepuff and Candace from Ravenclaw!
The competition turned out to be very exciting and tense indeed!  We had 22 of the 32 contestants show up and had a few extras come in place of the no-shows.  We ended up having some people in the first round compete either 1-to-1 or 1-to-2 and those few who did not have a teammate in the first round but won it anyway were automatically advanced to the 3rd round, so it turned out to be evenly-matched in the later rounds.

The 1st place winner received one Harry Potter replica wand, one Chocolate Frog, and one box of Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans from the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando, as well as 1 movie ticket to go see the new HP movie that just came out.

The 2nd place winner received one Chocolate Frog and one glass mug with the Hogwarts crest on it, both from the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando, as well as 1 movie ticket.

The 3rd and 4th place winners also received 1 movie ticket each, and four additional movie tickets were given out at random from a drawing done during intermission, after the second round.

Congratulations to the winners and I thank you all so much for coming out and playing in this Trivia Tournament.  The judges and I had a great time putting it together and actually seeing how it played out.  It seemed almost as tense for us as it was for you who competed!

We are definitely considering doing this again, perhaps around the time that the final movie comes out, so I will let you all know if we decide to do this next year.  Also, any feedback that you could give would be greatly appreciated in case we do decide to do this a second time around.

Thank you again to all those who competed and supported us, and I hope you continue to love the books and the HP world as much as we do.

Sincerely,
HPC Founder
