THREE DAYS OF SKIPPING WORK FOR EVERYONE
Midsummer is a holiday celebrated primarily in Europe that is associated with both Pagan and Christian religions. Either way, it's a pretty big celebration in a lot of countries, though because this is supposedly ~*~Ąmerica~*~, things are going to have to be Americanized just a tad bit.

While some countries celebrate a a two day festival, others only celebrate one set day and it varies in reason depending on religion, country, and region. To keep things simple, Midsummer will last a weekend fomr Friday the 22nd to Sunday the 24th.

While regains will not be handed out for this event in any form or fashion, if enough people complete the tasks on each day the landlord will give everyone something pretty cool come next month. How many is "enough"? That's a secret!

So what is there to be done? Here's what will go down on each day:

( 22nd )

( 23rd )

( 24th )

To get the special somethings, the Maypole, Park Party, and Bonfire must be attended. Note that you don't have to complete each task assigned in order for it to qualify. Do one, two or all three! It's supposed to be a group effort.

This event is majorly CR based and encourages the interaction between all characters. The event is completely optional and only for funsies! Feel free to participate or not! It's not meant to be too heavy considering we just had a four day event. A log will go up with a thread for each day, to keep everything concise. The log will go up at midnight on the 22nd with the Maypole thread. Each other thread, one for the 23rd and 24th, will go up at midnight CST of the next day. It's possible to tag in late, but come July 1st, it's safe to say the decision will be made on whether or not the prize is deserved. Long story short: tag what you want, when you want, and you should be good!

FINAL THOUGHTS
A post will go up shortly to the network community regarding ICly informing everyone of the festival. Be on the look out! As suggested by a few players, Holly Heights is getting a new monthly IC post revealing certain information, as well as a new NPC!
