Meeting other Oz Club members is a great way to share your enthusiasm for Oz. Sometimes, however, it takes a little initiative. Hosting a local party is not considerably unlike hosting any other party. Here are some tips to get you started. Proven tips, at that; the Oogaboo Rendezvous local gathering has been meeting for more than 20 years, with these simple guidelines to follow.
Plan: First find a date that works for you. If there’s a local Oz exhibit, presentation or performance, consider attending as a group to help attract people to the event. Check the calendar for holiday conflicts and determine what style party you’d like to have – a pot luck meal at your home, a film shown in a meeting room, a meal following a matinee? Anything you’ll want guests to come prepared to do – wear a favorite Oz T-shirt, bring something for show-and tell, contribute a wrapped gift to an Ozzy exchange -- will need to be included in your invitation
