There will be brooms! There will be capes! There will be quaffles, and bludgers,and snitches! There will be MAGIC!

Fancy donning a cape and mounting a broom to play the greatest sport known to Muggles and Wizards alike?

The games will be held on October 19th, from 12-3, just in time for Halloween. A $2 sign-up fee per player is requested. All proceeds will go towards helping children living with AIDS and HIV.

We are still in need of players! Send a message through our Contact Form or to society@one-moment.org - let me know what position you are interested in (we’ll try to accommodate everyone’s preference, but as we already have an influx of Beaters that may not be possible). We’ll slot you into a team. If you are a quick runner, consider signing up as a Snitch Runner - a crowd favourite and the ultimate prize of Seekers everywhere.

Do NOT worry if you haven’t played before, this sport has been kept a secret to Muggles for far too long. A Quidditch info session will be held in the near future where we will go over the rules and have a costume-making session. There will be time to practise before lifting off for the real thing. Check out some footage from our previous Quidditch Match if you’re curious as to how it works.

Should you have facebook: INVITE YER FRIENDS!
I guarantee a good time, or it’s a free Kneazle on me!

On February 14th, a brave troupe ventured into the SUB - battling hordes of students and an unforgiving wind chill - to meet an even more formidable enemy inside:

Hours and hours of cheesy love melodies.

But all was not lost! With collars up over their ears and fierce determination burning in their eyes, they set themselves at the task at hand. And indeed, by the end of the day, all that was left of the carnage were sad empty silver buckets and a tub full of cash.

That brave troupe raised $106.15 that day, selling rose after rose like there was no tomorrow. Actually, it turned out there was a tomorrow, but if they were an eighth as awesome, who knows if the sun would’ve risen?

OneMoment invites you to relax and take a breather before your exams by joining us at the Grawood on November 28th for an AIDS Benefit Concert!

This will be a wet/dry event, open to all who want to have a great time! This concert will feature three great local bands: Wheeler, BIRT and the Rebuttals, and Tsar-Bomba.

The event runs from 9:00pm - 1:00am. Cover is $2 and donation-based raffles will be sold every hour for pitchers of beer. All proceeds raised from this event will go to AIDS Relief.

So, to recap: Benefit Concert! November 28th at the Grawood, 9:00 - 1:00, with a $2 cover. Bring yer friends! It’ll be a blast. If you have facebook, Join the event so you won’t forget!
