We had a great time, and we hope you did, too! Congratulations to our contest winners! We have Quidditch photos up in our new photo gallery. Check them out!

Wizard Jeopardy was the best matchup we’ve seen in the four years we’ve had the game at Starfest. Our winner, Tessa, won a very competitive game with a final score of 10,400 and received a full-weekend pass to Starfest 2009. Genieva, our runner-up, won a weekend pass to the Colorado Renaissance Festival, and Eddie, our third place contestant, took home a lovely witch’s hat and wand.

Our Quidditch champion was Thomas, who won a wonderful Gold Snitch medal after defeating Damion in the finals.

We hope everyone enjoyed the classes, the Quidditch, and the game show, and we look forward to next year’s festivities. If you missed out on your chance to get one of our NQL t-shirts, we’re working on making them available for sale here through the website.
