Staff Report on May 18, 2016

A part of the mystique of Hogwarts made its way to Gregg Clarke Park Saturday as muggles and wizards aged 7 to 12 years old participated in the city’s inaugural Youth Quidditch Clinic. The clinic was hosted by the Texas State Quidditch Team, which taught attendees the basics of the sport, which is derived from J.K. Rowling’s “Harry Potter” novels. See more photos here.
