gameday-fb-headerNow that winter if finally here, we are planning a great indoor Game Day!  Invite friends from your home school and neighborhood!

Games!
  • All participants are welcome to bring their own board games to share (we suggest you write your name on your copy).
  • We will have many games on hand for families to learn.
  • Ideal games are for ages 10+, for 4+ players, take under an hour, and are non-elimination (meaning that everyone finished at the same time – win or lose).
Game Gurus
  • If you volunteer to run games, please arrive at least 30 min before your time slot to become familiar with the games being run, so you have an easier time teaching games.
  • Most of the games available can be learned in a short period of time.
  • Game Gurus are highly encouraged to bring their own games that they are already familiar with playing.

Chili Cook Off

  • Bring your cooked chili in a crockpot or insulated container to the multipurpose room before 2:30pm.
  • Please provide a list of ingredients (for allergen purposes) and a spice level from 1-5, with 5 being the hottest.
  • Chili will be available to participants at 3pm.
  • Each participant will get to choose three different chilis and pick their favorite. The winner will receive a prize and title, Chili Master of CGA!
Bake Sale
  • Bring all baked goods to the multipurpose room the day of the event.
  • Treats should individually wrapped.
  • Please avoid nuts. Labeling of vegan and gluten-free items is highly encouraged.
