Hat Party

My graduation party ideas are based on the fact I am having a home party which will be open house. I wanted to identify us all as a team as we wonder around the various parties. Mt friends all agreed we should wear t-shirts and hats which identify us together.
To make my family home different, but blending in with the overall theme my graduation party ideas have been based on hats and school colors in some way.
In the end I have gone for a hat party. We have ordered hats in high school colors, blue and black, but everyone can wear what they want.
I hope we get basic baseball caps right through to my Mum's best hat for weddings.
In addition to usual decorations we have borrowed lots of hats to put out everywhere.
Games will be pin the hat on the graduate, best hat contest and pass the hat.
My dad is seeting up a standee with an elaborate hat above it. He will photo everyone and send them a copy.
Favors are baseball caps in school colors with candy.
The cake will be hat shaped and in school colors.
We now need to find lots of hat shaped cookie cutters for the sandwiches, and cookies, and hat shaped glasses for drinks.
