👻 How Do You Boo? 👻

https://www.marapets.com/club.php?page5=1&id=187235

How Do You Boo? is all about getting to know the people behind the Boos! In the future your responses can be used as Member Spotlight/Member of the Month blurbs!

How to Enter: Answer five questions and MM 📩 your entries to me, Decadork with the subject line "How I Boo"!

https://www.marapets.com/maramail.php?do=send&id=Decadork

Questions:
1. What is your favourite colour? 🎨
2. What made you start playing Marapets?

🐝 Welcome to Boo Crew! 👻

Hi there! We're so excited to officially welcome you to Boo Crew!

Now that you're here, there are a few things we'd love to get you acquainted with as you settle into your new hive!

📖 How to Boo Guide

https://www.marapets.com/blogs.php?entry=503545&id=5407679

This is your main guide to all things Boo Crew! Here you'll find our club rules, FAQs, information about how things work around the club, and where to find our weekly news.

All New Bees are required to read through the How to Boo Guide and leave a comment on the blog acknowledging that you've read it!

🐝 Meet Your Buddy

As a New Bee, you'll also be assigned a Boo Buddy!

Your Boo Buddy is one of our veteran members who volunteered to help you get settled into the club. They're your friendly face around Boo Crew while you're getting acquainted! Someone who can answer questions, help point you in the right direction, introduce you to some of the things we do around here, or just say hi when they see you in Club Chat!

You'll receive a separate MM introducing you to your Boo Buddy, so keep an eye out for that!
