In-person get-together to celebrate the coming holiday season. Each person should bring a wrapped gift – something simple – to contribute to a round-robin surprise gift exchange. The gift can be something home-made, a gag gift (these are especially fun), anything at all (but please keep what you bring to a maximum of a $10.00 or $15.00 value).

This will be a fun occasion during which we can enjoy being together and can celebrate the fact that we have made it through a difficult time for many of us and many in our community.
Please bring a snack treat or drink to share as well. The library allows anything except alcohol. There is also a small kitchen, if we need to warm anything up.
​We hope you can join in the fun!

Process for the gift exchange:

We will pick numbers, and the first person will pick anything from the wrapped gifts and will open it. That is his/hers to keep – UNLESS a later person wishes to take it from him/her. The second person can choose a different wrapped gift and open it, or s/he can "steal" the first person's gift, which will leave that first person the option of choosing another gift. The third person can, in turn, choose a third gift from the wrapped gift pool, or s/he can "steal" either gift already opened. Again, if someone's gift has been stolen, that person has the opportunity to choose another gift. And so forth. The only constraint is that someone who has been stolen from cannot immediately steal that same item back from the person who just took it. But otherwise anyone who is left without a gift because something has been stolen from him/her has the option of stealing from someone else or choosing from the wrapped pool. At the end of the round-robin, the person who was the initial number one has the final option of trading what they have with what anyone else has.
