Gryfftoberfest 2005
Introduction to Gryfftoberfest

October is a wonderful month full of leaves that change colour, Halloween, pumpkins, and BUTTERBEER! That's right ladies and gentlemen. Forget Halloween, there's a MUCH more important holiday that last so much longer than one day. The whole month of October is dedicated to something uniquely Gryff: Gryfftoberfest.

So what's Gryfftoberfest all about? Well, that's a good question. It's about celebrating who we are, why we are, and where we've come from. We look back on Godric Gryffindor's life as he was our founder. We celebrate with lots of good food, butterbeer, and games. And most importantly, we celebrate the qualities that make us uniquely Gryff and show that off to the rest of the world (and/or HOL).

Now, you might be wondering what the big deal is, right? Well, what's the point of having a huge party if it's not huge?! So we need each and every Gryff to get involved and show off your spirit. After all, not just the Spice Girls are allowed to have spirit! This is the time to show it off!

So, you can use the siggy and/or avatar that won the contest on the Gryff CR and/or the HOL Forum.

You can participate in any number of the contests and activities we've got around the house. Check this forum for all the contests that are available! Also, we have a lovely group of themed quizzes available for your delight in Gryffmart. The more you participate, the more fun you have! (and the more Rubies you earn!)

Please be sure to embody our motto this year:

Normal doesn't apply to us!

Good luck to you all and Happy Gryfftoberfest!
