*Announcements:

• • New Combo: The new year has brought a new popup combo along with it. 😄
    This new combo = 30 mins of Popup + 15 mins of free hugs session.
    (Note: The banner to be set is "Popup: Free Hugs". No script needed. The free hugs can be hosted in the same room as that of the popup session or in the free hugs room. Depends on the host's convenience.)
  • We are coming up with an interview series with Ninjas. If you are a Popup Ninja badge holder and would like to be interviewed, please reply in this post or in the PM 🐱‍👤
  • @GoldenRuleJG has introduced a new script. “Happy Birthday/Cupversary”. If you know someone who has a birthday/cupversary coming, you can host a popup party for them in any popup room and help them make their special day even more special 😄

• We have a badge for hosts who have been regular with popups and have shown great enthusiasm for it. Proudly announcing the current Events Team Badge holders @Angelx28 @ColorfuldogsofParadise @DonaldDraper @jovialButterfly6752 @kindLemonade @richuyulin @Star996 @starryskies108 @Sunisshiningandsoareyou @unique73 @VerseArt @Fristo @GoldenRuleJG and the newest addition to the list are @KyleBorg 🥁

*Thank you @bethelight111 @DonaldDraper @emotionalTalker2260 @KyleBorg @MoonChild1206 @VaryingCloud @VerseArt for continuously cheering people up 🧡

A reminder to our hosts to share feedback forms at the end of the sessions to receive kind words from the participants

DonaldDraper: ‘Positive affirmations’ game was fun and also lead our minds focus on the positives. Another great game by @DonaldDraper. The host has been amazing as always in keeping the session as engaging as possible with lots of chuckling moments for all of us. 👏👏👏

*The PUFFies are growing every week and a huge credit goes to the positive participants. Here are some who made popups special last week🧡

If you wish to encourage our hosts to host more of these sessions, leave them a feedback here
