June

Hi everyone,

Just a few days left until we start the summer badge event. According to the last mm, this year's theme is Cosmic Cleanup. Even if you are usually just a lurker, please feel free to post in club chat if you need help with a challenge. People are more than willing to buy from your shop if you drop in a 1 mp item and post in chat. If you have a rather full shop, it helps if the item is on the first page.

We also have Egg Extravaganza and Pride Week this month. Scroll down to the end to read information from last year about the June events. ATM wise, I am running a design a team banner and a Drew quest challenge to coincide with Pride Week.

Thanks to all who continue to donate items for the shop, swaps, quizzes, and raffles. I'm going to be pretty busy with family stuff the next couple weeks, so I have already changed over to June items. If you would like to help out, here is the June focus:
