 Puff by day, snake by night | Mj's bestie | Always UP to Something...
Her eyes lifted as someone else joined the meeting. A small smile towards Adam, she was glad everything was alright and that he was finally there. She really liked her co-managers in the department and wouldn’t hate to see any of them missing or something wrong with their families. Listening to Mariel greet him, she turned her attention back to the meeting.
As Saxon began to speak. Oh yes, they had chatted a bit about Gobstones. She really wanted to see the sport get more news and recognition. “I really like the league idea and think it would be a fun way to get the ministry employees from different departments mingling a bit more.” That was always hard with a place this big, they didn’t know everyone. “Putting it out there for younger generations to learn would be a great way to promote it and get them involved at an early age.” That’s what they needed to get to the younger generations so the sport didn’t die out.
When Mercedes spoke about an auction Victoria chuckled, “We should have managers as well. I bet Cam would just love to do that.” The thought of Rebecca up for auction made her chuckle more. Though Cam was going to be a father soon again, so he’d probably be busy. She jotted down the notes for later, agreeing with Mariel that it wasn’t for the election, but it was a great idea.
“Once we know who is running, maybe we could find out their interest. If they were a quidditch person they might enjoy a community event with Quidditch to get their names out. If they are more of a chess or even muggle sports, that could be fun as well.” She thought a moment, “Or a small carnival, the candidates could be part of the games. A dunk your favorite candidate type of thing.” Just a thought at least. She really wasn’t use to planning something that involved an election, but felt they could do it.
She listened to Mariel and nodded, “Yes it seems the Quidditch pitch had collapsed and from my knowledge it has not been fixed, so the season again did not happen. This is becoming a problematic thing for this department. The managers are looking to us to see how they can see the up and coming talent. Without games for scouts to really see how a player performs it’s hard for them to want to commit. The tryouts worked well last year and I certainly would like to do them again. Any thoughts on ways to make sure teams are getting to see every angle of a player would be welcomed.” Though she felt they did a great job last summer. She smiled as Mariel spoke about another of her idea. “My son is a very big Quidditch fanatic, wants to play pro someday, but with the issues at Hogwarts it has made us think outside the pitch on ways to get him the experience and opportunities. This of course made me think of our positions and how a community Quiddtich camp wouldn’t be a bad idea. Have different stations for different age groups so that they can learn at their levels.” She’d speak with her department more about this and start planning if this was a green light to go ahead with it.
