Tabletop Appreciation Weekend
We are back for Extra Life Tabletop Appreciation year 6 but this time we are getting an early start. Synching up with National Board game day so mark your calendars for April 12 -14.
Come join us and find some new passions, or simply connect with people looking to play together. If you have celebrated with us in the past then you know all levels of board gamers are welcome. There will be an excellent selection of some of the most fun and interesting board games of our time.
Our Play to Win's are returning and player's will have a chance to take home some brand spanking new board games. Did we mention raffle prizes, well there will be raffles. A $5 contribution is requested for participation in the Play to Wins. Extra Lifers feel free to donate it to your personal page. I know you may be thinking “Five Dollars” but 100% will go towards our local Children’s Miracle Network Hospital.
How do you get a raffle ticket? Glad you asked. There are three ways to get a raffle ticket:
1. Sign up for Extra Life
2. Every $10 spent in store
3. Every $10 donated to Extra Life
Never Played before? No problem we will teach attendees the basic rules, set up, and how to play each of the games, perform demonstrations of the newest games, and be close at hand in case players have questions while they play on their own. Also if you stayed tuned to this page we'll let you know where you can find the how to play videos as well.
We'd love to have you on our team! Visit the Extra Life home page, Check out the Extra Life Jacksonville Guild at https://www.extra-life.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=donordrive.team&teamID=66787 then click "Join Our Team". So come join us, Play Games, and Heal Kids. Even if you can't make a contribution, you can still support the team by cheering us on, and spreading the word.
