If there is one thing the past couple of years have taught us, it’s this…. we know how to party – VIRTUALLY! Last year about 50 of us joined in on the fun. Now you can too!
Join us for the WPA Members VIRTUAL Holiday Party on ZOOM
Tuesday, December 14th 5:30PM PST
Even though we can’t enjoy all the yummy treats we normally have at a party, we can still enjoy our crazy gift exchange! It’s a blast!
HOW? ON ZOOM!
We’ll set up a Zoom meeting and you join in from the comfort of our own homes. Sure, you can still wear an Ugly Sweater, goofy hat, or whatever, just be ready for some fun!
EVERYONE IS INVITED TO JOIN IN THE PARTY…. BUT, IN ORDER TO PARTICIPATE IN THE GIFT EXCHANGE, YOU MUST:
- LIVE IN THE UNITED STATES. (Sorry, but the shipping out of country is too costly for a lot of people)
- RSVP BY DEC 11th (In order to prepare!)
- You must have access to a webcam and microphone and be able to attend a ZOOM meeting/gathering.
- In order to play the game, everyone provides a gift for the gift pool and it should not exceed $20 in value.
- Once the party is over, you agree to send your gift to the person who won it!
TIPS: Might want to think smaller sized gift items since shipping can be costly on big items! Just a thought. =)
HOW THE GIFT GAME WORKS:
On our Zoom call, everyone’s name is added to a basket and we draw one name at a time. The person called will share with the group what gift they are putting into the pool. (So no need to wrap it!) We’ll continue to go down the list until everyone’s gift has been shared.
YOU NEED TO TAKE NOTES OF THE GIFTS! This way, you know WHO has WHAT =)
After all the gifts have been viewed, an assigned a number to each person is drawn once again from a basket. The number drawn get’s to chose a gift they want from the gift pool. (Remember those notes? This is where it’s important!)
After number “1” selects a gift, then “2” may either select a different gift OR STEAL #1’s gift. If they steal, then the person left with nothing may select a new gift, and so on. A gift may not be stolen more than twice! Once stolen twice it is no longer in play and “Frozen”.
WILD CARD – (Hey, we’re gamblers… there has to be a wildcard!)
The LAST person to be drawn may steal any gift, no matter if it’s frozen or not. This will open the game up once more until all gifts are satisfied. =)
REGISTRATION FOR THE PARTY HAS CLOSED… SEE YOU NEXT TIME!
